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.

Moderation in place

The latest update to blummy covers moderation.
I have cleaned up the blummlets so that there should not be too many blummlets doing the same thing left. While cleaning up I had to merge a few blummlets; if everything went okay you wouldn’t have noticed anything, if not, a blummlet might have disappeared from your blummy. Sorry for that.

  • [GUI] A check next to a blummlet means that it has been verified by a moderator.
  • [Feature] In preferences you can check whether you want to see unverified blummlets, too (default is no)
  • [Feature] You can now choose to open a blummlet in a new Window or Tab (Preferences under advanced). This is actually a not seen feature for bookmarklets. It is established by using the Blummy library function Blummy.href() which resembles location.href = url as Blummy.href(url).
  • [GUI] Cleaned up the preferences window a bit.

With cleaning up I moved almost each blummlet using location.href to use Blummy.href so that for most of them the “open in tab” feature should work. Additionally I have converted all the document.selection/window.getSelection etc. to Blummy.getSelection so that using the selection should work in almost any browser now.

blummy, changes
