dooce® Twitter Update

Just added her latest tweets to her sidebar. Empty your cache and do a shift-refresh. Comment with any problems. I don’t want to hear design critiques, but technical issues. Save the design comments for masterclass next Friday.

I used a Javascript I found here. Thanks for sharing, Ralph!

Pretty sweet and with Drupal’s blocks, didn’t take much time at all to put it where she wanted. Yes, I know, that’s what she said. o

    You and Heather have me ADDICTED to Twitter. It’s the best thing since…coffee? Screw-top wine?

    Hi Jon.

    Long time reader, first time poster.

    Only design comment would be that the time stamp text size is pretty small – viewed using Firefox 2.0.0.13 on a MBP.

    CSS quickfix?

    Great feature! Technical issue: The small, orange text saying when she posted is completely minute and illegible using my browser (Firefox 2.0.0.4)
    Also, might you provide a link in there to her twitter page? Hoping the latter isn’t an unwanted “design critique”…if so, send me to the back of the class!

    Dude, I totally would but I’m too busy watching Cinemax porn in Slingbox right now. Please don’t publish my IP address.

    Okay, they went back to the plot. Looks great!

    Jon, put down the motor oil and get yourself some Rogue’s Dead Guy Ale. It’s much more appetizing and will make all those dog problems fade away.

  11. T says:

    I see a lot of people making their MY RECENT TWEETS text/image clickable and it going straight to their twitter page. Just a thought.

  12. Danielle says:

    The last four times I’ve visited dooce.com, my firefox browser shut down immediately… I’m using v 2.0.0.6 on a MacBook Pro.

  13. Hey cool. I am glad you found my JSON/jQuery Twitter code useful. Thanks!

    Ralph
