Tuesday August 3nd
- Final touches to lextLeading
- back onto popcorn and open video
- started to research a new demo, brainstorm ideas.
Wednesday August 4th
- continued with research for a new demo. I am hitting a lot of dead ends, and not sure which dead end to turn into an opening.
- Talked with Brett about popcorn, about where it is heading, what is important, and to get ideas for the current and future demos. I think I need to focus on, as much as I can, breaking that wall between flash and the web. I think a strong argument with using javascript over flash is I can have the library, made in a way that is easily integrated with familiar things like jquery, processing, and any javascript library. Something the xml limits us on is that it is just xml, and not integrable with any and every javascript library, but also using xml in an of itself is an advantage, and maybe supporting both is the best way.
Thursday August 5th
- First thing I did was re read yesterday's conversation with Brett, to help it sink in and warm me up.
- Researched a new demo, and continued with popcorn research
Friday August 6th
Monday August 9th
Tuesday August 10th
Wednesday August 11th
- processing conference call
- Finished off the rewrite for textAscent and textDescent then applied new code to textLeading, which will fail in future reviews...
Thursday August 12th
Friday August 13th
- Was stuck all day on changing a html5 video's current time. I wrote a blog post on it next Monday (just went through time a little :P). The fix mentioned in the post was discovered a few minutes before the day was over.
Monday August 16th
- Worked on the video demo Brett from Mozilla started while he was in Brazil, working on the fix discovered in my last worklog entry.
- There is a problem with loading the video based on time stamps, instead of having many multiple smaller videos... it's just as slow.
- Popcorn conference call with Brett
- Going to try the brazil demo with multiplel videos again, but instead of creating the videos, have all videos loaded, and hide and display them as needed. Might boost the performance.
Tuesday August 17th
- Finished up a refactoring of popcorn.js that I have been slowly working on while balancing other projects...
- Started phase two of popcorn refactoring
- Blogged and did final research about HTML5 video currentTime problems. Hopefully I can put this to rest and move on to popcorn.
