Meltdown.

After some very heavy traffic to this site, I was mucking around with some of my files and folders… and it looks like I accidentally deleted my source directory! This is where several downloads were stored, including BSJSONAdditions, MUPhotoView, and a few others. I’m working to get all of the files re-exported from my Subversion [...]

MUPhotoView 1.1

I listened to your feedback, and made the most requested improvements in this version – without changing much of what you, as a developer, will need to implement in order to use MUPhotoView. Here’s a list of what’s new:

Photo Removal Support: Whether you implement MUPhotoView via bindings or via delegate, the new photo removal methods [...]

Better Late Than Never.

I know I’m totally late to the big ol’ musical Web 2.0 party, but I finally created myself an account on Last.fm and am busy tracking all my listening habits. I’m a total addict of any sort of massive data tracking and cataloging – whether it’s on the web or on the desktop.

So, check out [...]

Change.

Change, is good.
One of the reasons I left my previous job was to focus all my time and energy on Cocoa and Mac OS X. Well, a little over 6 months has passed, and I’m ready to solidify my Mac OS efforts a bit: Starting this Monday, I will be joining the Aperture team at [...]

Feed Me.

You may already know that Flickr provides RSS and Atom feeds for every user’s photo stream. (There a link at the bottom of each user’s main photo page – here’s my page and a link to my RSS feed.) But what you may not know is that Flickr supports output in quite a few formats [...]

BSJSONAdditions 1.3

UPDATE: I’ve updated the BSJSONAdditions code, moved the repository to github, and created a Google Group to discuss bugs, features, changes, etc. Please check out the github repository for the latest code.

There’s only one change in this update: the parser now skips any characters before the first object definition. For example, Flickr wraps their JSON [...]

MUPhotoView 1.0

I finished version 1.0 of MUPhotoView (previously mentioned here). The download includes all the code included in the previous demo application, and additionally supports keyboard selection navigation, better scroll adjustment during photo resizing, and a couple other minor fixes.
Download the source code, project, and documentation here.

Quick Feature List:

Dynamically resizable photo thumbnails. (Photos provided via [...]

NSMatrix and Bindings

Update: I accidentally deleted most of my source downloads, and this was one I didn’t have a stored copy of. If you have one, please email it to me at this domain at mac dot com. In the meantime, the downloads linked from this post will get a 404.
While I was reading Wil Shipley’s [...]

30 Years, 30 Miles

I turned 30 this weekend, and in celebration, spent a few days at Mammoth with some friends. We snowboarded for six straight hours – no lunch break, no nothing – on Friday. I let the Forerunner 205 run the entire time, so it recorded any movement – whether that was boarding or riding on the [...]

Just Like iPhoto Used To Make

Liscio and dcj were having a conversation on the #macsb IRC channel last week about designing better reusability between model, view, and controller components. That, of course, got me thinking about Mugshot, and that many of the pieces I wrote early on know way too much about the internals of the other pieces.
The main thumbnail [...]
