Loading Blummy…

People have been complaining that it took more than one click to open blummy. The problem is that it may take some time to transfer the blummy script source to your computer (due to slow server, network, whatever). So after the first click, blummy is loaded from blummy.com, when you click again (before blummy appears), you instantly close blummy again, so nothing happens. Only after the third click blummy opens.

Now our user fuska had the great idea to display a small “loading blummy” text, so the user knows what’s going on.

  • [Feature] “Loading blummy…” informs the user about the current ongoings.

The downside of this update is that you need to replace your blummy bookmarklet (as the loading text is displayed by the bookmarklet to do that instantaneously). So go to blummy.com, log in, and drag blummy to your toolbar again. That should do the trick.

Thanks, fuska!

Favicon caching

Hello there,

You may have noticed that your blummy now opens a bit faster. This is due to a new feature:

  • [Feature] Favicons are cached on the blummy server.

So now your blummy will not hesitate to open because some server is not ready to serve his icon.

I hope this causes some speed-ups ;)

PS: In the first few hours there could be some hick-ups with caching, as some servers might be down while filling up the cache.
