| Google Recommends Upgrade to API v2 |
Posted by Paul Rimmer / Tuesday, July 25, 2006 (03:36:31) / (2276 reads)
Google Maps API version 2 has been out for a couple of months now so its probably time to upgrade. They say v1 and v2 will co-exist for a "while": "Version 1 and Version 2 will coexist for at least a month no matter how few bugs are reported, and we may preserve Version 1 of the API for longer if people report many or complex transition problems". Based on this I'm going to get DF Maps upgraded ASAP.
Check out Google's own upgrade guide from API v1 to v2. |

Maybe a Google Calendar Dragonfly module is worth looking into....
"Simplify. Organize. (And relax.) Organizing your schedule shouldn't be a burden. That's why we've created Google Calendar – our free online shareable calendar service. With Google Calendar, it's easy to keep track of all your life's important events – birthdays, reunions, little league games, doctor's appointments – all in one place.
Using Google Calendar, you can add events and invitations effortlessly, share with friends and family (or keep things to yourself), and search across the web for events you might enjoy. It's organizing made easy." |

| DF Maps Module for Dragonfly |
Posted by Paul Rimmer / Monday, April 10, 2006 (01:56:20) / (1666 reads)
The MemGooMap module has now been replaced by the DF Maps module. There will not be any more MemGooMap versions as all subsequent releases will be focussed on DF Maps. It takes the source code written for the original module and extends it to support multiple maps. Admins can create as many maps with as many marker categories as they'd like. The basics can be seen in action here. There's a bit more work to do before its ready for a release. Track its progress and/or submit bugs/features in the Ronin Projects module or discuss it in the forum. |

| Canada Weather Module For Dragonfly |
Posted by Paul Rimmer / Monday, April 10, 2006 (00:43:12) / (1295 reads)
While migrating the Ronin Website over to the Dragonfly CMS, I couldn't find a weather module that worked well for Canadian locations. So I decided to whip one up using the experience I gained working on the Canada Weather script for the Homeseer Home Automation software.
It uses the data available from Environment Canada, which has always seemed accurate over the years.
You can see it on the right side of the main page. Its not ready for release yet as I need to set it up as a module and add in the various config options. I've created a project page to track the work and a forum for discussion. |
