I know it’s nowhere near Valentine’s Day, but that doesn’t mean you can’t do something thoughtful for the ones you love. ToobBox.com is a great website to make music video playlists with those loved ones in mind. Watch the video below to see how easy it!
Toobbox.com is perfect for listening to music at work. This video shows how I use ToobBox.com every morning to get down and dirtay.
This is what happens when the web development teams starts buying all kinds of weird little boxes and pedals from Guitar Center:
This video is for people who have questions on how to install and use our Myspace Youtube Playlist App. It goes over adding and deleting videos as well as the autoplay function.
Our little Myspace App has been out for a while now. We just got it looking decent so I guess it’s time to expose it. This app allows you to create Youtube video playlists and have a small player on your Myspace profile. It holds up to 20 videos and you can title the videos yourself (instead of letting Youtube do it).
Basic Features:
This short video demonstrates ToobBox.com’s multiple playlists feature. Intro music by J. Shaw (thank you!) and we feature Mr. Song’s band Monodilic (which I always have a hard time spelling). BTW - Camtasia is awesome!
Here is some real development news: We finally pushed out the multiple playlist feature. This was a pretty big feat for us. Here are some of the highlights:
)We also changed the search results panel:
Other things that were worked out:
Upload Your Friends Playlists or Create New Ones!
They do this tricky thing in my neighborhood where they alternate what weeks they do street sweeping. I think it’s something like the second and fourth Wednesday of every month the street sweeper comes by and “sweeps” the street. I think all it really does is go by and makes super obnoxious noises for a few minutes and then takes off. I don’t think it really cleans the street at all. If your car is parked on my street when the sweeper comes by you get a nice fat $41 ticket.
To increase the “trickiness factor” they only sweep one side of the street on Wednesday and the other side on Thursday. What makes this an incredible pile of bullshit is that I live on a cul-de-sac! I swear the only reason why they do this is to collect revenue - not to clean the streets. Also, I don’t work a normal schedule and it always changes. Some days I get home super late from work. Like the next day at 2 am. So there is no way in hell I’m going to remember to move my car at 8am, especially when it’s late and my memory of what day it is - is a bit fuzzy.
After getting a fair share of tickets over the past 8 years, I thought of a community action system to prevent this mafia style gouging of the neighborhood:
Street Sweeping Warning System
The idea here is to build this simple sawhorse style sign and post it up the day before the street sweeper comes. At least in my hood when people drive home from work they should see the sign if it’s posted on the corner. The signs on our street are small and hard to see and that’s why you usually forget about the sweeper coming the next day.
The plan is to build this sign with reflective paint and keep it under a nice $25 budget. More to come…
