Looking for testers for a web app.


Question

Hi all,

I am looking for testers to provide feedback on a new hosted CMS I am developing, called Toolbox, so if you are a web designer, web developer, freelance/work in anything to do with the web or just want to try out a new and shiny web app go here and enter your e-mail address and I will send through the details. :)

You can find out more information about Toolbox here.

Thanks.

Sounds identical to a project I love that works beautifully.. check out the video:

http://www.cushycms.com/

Although, Toolbox and CushyCMS does the same thing, as in editing a static website via FTP. But with Toolbox you don't need to add classes to what you want editable by default everything on the website is editable. Although you can also use the editable class to control what you can edit on the website, just in case you don't want your clients editing something they shouldn't edit.

Instead of giving a few text boxes and guessing what your changes will look like. With Toolbox you inline edit your website which will allow you to see what it will look like while editing.

Toolbox also has APIs which will have you to build your own Toolbox or add Toolbox into your current client software.

Plus I built Toolbox from the ground up as interchangeable parts. A future feature will be plug-ins where you can add features to the inline editing feature of Toolbox and maybe other features of Toolbox by creating Javascript plug-ins.

I will send though a invite to you and Sev7enVII shortly, so you both can try it out for yourself. :)

Sounds cool! :) Had you actually seen Cushy before you started developing this?

Thank you to everyone that tested out and providing feedback on Toolbox, the feedback was very helpful. :)

With the launch of Toolbox coming up, it is time to close beta testing. If you miss out on trying Toolbox sure you keep a eye on the blog and twitter for a special preview of Toolbox.

Thanks Again. :)

So, anything new?

A lot of things have happen behind the scenes. :)

Soon all beta testers and everyone that registered their interest on the website before yesterday will get a chance to be the first to sign up for an account. So if that is you keep an eye on your inbox.

    • 1. Define "better". 2. It's still more expensive than equivalent PCs so... And there is not one Windows platform. This is the mistake ALL Apple oriented people make. Apple is one OEM. You could reasonably compare them to one PC OEM, say Dell or HP. But you can't compare them to ALL PC OEMs. Case in point, Apple has NO touch screen MacBooks. No tablet Macs. There are no rugged Macs. The variety of PC OEM design is insane. With Apple, you have... Apple. The problem is that you're starting with Apple as the definition of "good" then filtering out anything that isn't close to an existing Apple product, then trying to homogenise all of those left into a fictional product line and then ignore any innovations to create a minimal feature subset so you can say "See! Apple better!" PS: I was an Apple dev for 17 years and helped develop MacInTalk and disability solutions for Apple, and worked on Microsoft Office for MacOS - and I have several Macs and MacBooks - so tread very carefully.
    • Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Microsoft has been making major changes in its gaming wing Xbox for a few months now, including the appointment of a new CEO, a large number of leadership changes, and strategy shifts. However, the company is seemingly also looking at initiating a major layoffs wave at Xbox and perhaps even a studio closure. The new report lands from Kotaku, Xbox first-party developer Compulsion Games is being shuttered soon by Microsoft. For those unfamiliar with the studio, it's the team behind Contrast (2013), We Happy Few (2018), and South of Midnight (2025). Its latest game was quite well received, even winning a Peabody Award for its writing. It even received a 9/10 in Neowin's own review, highlighting its engaging storyline, gorgeous world, and curious characters. The studio joined Xbox Game Studios in 2018, just as Microsoft announced it is acquiring Playground Games, Undead Labs, and Ninja Theory. Despite recent listings for new staff roles, according to the new report, Compulsion Games is being closed entirely, with over 90 staff being let go. Kotaku also added that the studio's leadership is in negotiations with Microsoft about this decision, but no official details have been revealed yet. The report lands just as two senior managers of Xbox leave their posts at Microsoft Gaming. Head of Xbox Game Studios Craig Duncan and chief of staff Louise O'Connor originally began their journey in Rare and have been a part of Xbox for over two decades. Dunkan has been responsible for games like Kinect Sports and Sea of Thieves, while O'Connor was primarily working on Rare's Everwild project before its cancelation. If this report about the studio shutdown is accurate, this may just be the start of a major new layoffs wave at Xbox Game Studios. There are also rumors of Arkane Studios being heavily affected. As always, take all these reports with a grain of salt until something official materializes from Microsoft or the studios.
    • The flaw with this analysis is that this laptop has a cellphone CPU in it. In the Intel world, that would be an N150 and those are everywhere, even in low end laptops. You can get an N150 based NUC with 16GB RAM and 256GB-512GB SSD... NOT soldered in... for < $500 Canadian (around US$360). The problem is two fold: tech bloggers/writers on most tech site (like this one, ironically) overvalue Apple and apparently aren't in the same earnings class as most regular people. As a result, we get breathless articles about how everyone needs a folding phone when most people just cannot afford one... or really need one. And we get Apple used as the baseline metric regardless of whether that comparison makes any sense. If Dell or HP released a retail laptop with a cellphone motherboard, you'd be all over them for doing that - but Apple does it and it's genius. I see articles suggesting what Samsung - a company that basically started the foldable phone market and has built them for eight years - needs to do to compete with Apple's unreleased, unspecced and unseen folding phone. Sorry, no - if the Neo (really creative name there BTW - still, better than the Go, the other "creative" product name everyone's using) encourages PC makers to make cellphone laptops using lower end ARM processors, we all lose. It's a step backwards and a capitulation to the fact that semiconductor makers and computer OEMs (and tech bloggers) have totally lost the plot.
