Quakk Goes Open Source

Posted in Software on Saturday, Saturday, September 20, 2008 by Anthony Burns

If you're just looking for the application, then you need to visit the Quakk homepage.

If you're after having a peek at the code, contributing, criticising, or even stealing some of it for use in your own Twitter application, then you're in the right place. The solution can be downloaded from CodePlex

Some ideas I have to improve Quakk going forward, that you may be interested in helping with:

  • GPS - Enable users to update their Location using GPS
  • Auto-Update Main Timeline - Enable users to set a time interval for Quakk to Update the main timline
  • Detect new software update - Quakk should check home every 25 updates to see if there's a new version
  • View X's timeline in menu - Adding "View User" to the popup menu so users can view another user's timeline
  • Unit Testing - I have yet to begin unit testing, although I've read quite a bit about it, so if someone fancies holding my hand through my first steps, that would be great!

If you're interested in participating with the development of Quakk then hit me up: @littlecharva or leave a message on CodePlex or in the comments here.

I dig this app by the way...best looking of all Windows Mobile apps I've seen. Having trouble when I click somebody and it pops up the options, "Reply" and "Send Direct Message," but when I try and click on "Send Direct Message" nothing happens. Thanks.

Application looks good, has a lot of promise. I agree with your list of feature updates, as I believe that will add alot to the application. Best of luck!

Ask your typical Australian and they’ll tell you in relation to the brace of Uggs they had in their adolescent years,ugg slippers, but question the typical US or UK teenager, and they’ll *put on view* you the pair of Uggs they are wearing this week. Typically on behalf of women it will be a couple of women’s tall Uggs in endlessly fashionable classic variety – you simply can’t beat classic styling.

Be attracted to em, hate em or simply inquisitive – you won’t become aware of a more comfortable, and inviting type of apparel for your toes and who knows – you could just look groovy getting your Ugg on!

To every customer who has such suspects, I clear their suspicion by stick on doing the following things. Never sell unqualified UGGs, this doesn’t mean our UGGs just ok, we want our UGG boots to be the best quality, no difference with UGG boots Australia.

uggs spoke on Friday, Friday, August 06, 2010

More than this, we do a lot of reach in design, manufacture, all the effort we do is to achieve one goal: provide you the lowest china wholesale price with the best UGGs quality.

uggs spoke on Tuesday, Tuesday, August 10, 2010

Thank yout to sharing.

uggs spoke on Wednesday, Wednesday, August 11, 2010

This is not just boasting, we do what we promised. We have strict process in purchasing material, we employ experts to select the best wool and sheepskin in china, keep the materials in a permanent and stable supply. With such serious attitude we can say out loud with pride that the UGGs we provide you are the best.
