TrackYourImpact.com Launched!

Recently we’ve launched a new site for a client called Purpose Beverages: http://trackyourimpact.com . We’ve received great feedback from users so far. The site uses a wide range of technologies. It is built on symfony and uses the Apostrophe CMS to manage the main parts of the site. It integrates with a SMS provider to allow you text into it to find out more about your purchase.

Tēvolution is a new brand of tea on the market that does good with each purchase. Every time someone buys it they done a specific amount(for example 25 cents) to a specific charity. In order to find out how large of a donation and what charity your bottle goes to you can actually text the code found on the bottle to the website, or you can login in on your phone browser or regular browser and enter the code. You will find out how much and to whom you just donated money to!

Right now Tēvolution is just coming to the market so keep your eyes peeled for it! It’s a great product that does good!

UPDATED: New Facebook Phonebook Script

I realized this morning that Anonymous Coward’s Facebook Phonebook Greasemonkey script broke awhile back so I decided to rewrite it from scratch.

The original instructions for how to install the script are available here.

I updated the original Userscripts page with the new script so you can download it here.

Once again, this probably breaks your Facebook TOS so I can’t vouch for the safety of your account if you do decide to do this.

WeGov.com out the door

sfSCMIgnoresTaskPlugin for Symfony released, windows compatible!

Recently I received an email from Davert.  He noted that the sfSCMIgnoresTaksPlugin would not work on Windows as Windows has a different directory separator.  He sent over a patch which uses PHP’s DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR instead of the coded “/”.  This makes the plugin compatible on Windows.  Thanks Davert.  You can read more about the plugin and download the most recent release at http://www.symfony-project.org/plugins/sfSCMIgnoresTaskPlugin.
