New formatting: Hyperlinks

Friday, June 19th, 2009No Comments »

We have just released a small update, which was the reason for the temporary maintenance site.

In addition to some internal system changes, there is still a small new feature. Now it’s possible to add hyperlinks to the flash cards. The following code:

[[http://www.cobocards.com|Cobocards]]

becomes: Cobocards

Of course, like all formatting features it’s easily reachable by the editor buttons.

GNU Wget – Our removal shipper

When you have the task to make a server change, keep GNU Wget in mind.

When we changed our server nearly 2 months ago, this tool has given us great support. Even a CLI tool, small but powerful, long live the command line!

Back from Barcamp Cologne

Sunday, June 7th, 2009No Comments »

As announced in our last entry here our report to Barcamp Cologne Volume 3.

Organisation: perfect

Catering: very good

Location: good, but difficult to get to with public transportation

Sessions: interesting and not too short (30 minutes) as we thought before. They have to be well prepared. Unfortunately, not many participants wanted to offer a session on Saturday.

People: fantastic, open and sociable

Special: Livestream for all those you could not attend the barcamp.

Thanks a lot to Nicole, Igor, Sascha, Mika & Franz for the great organisation. We would be happy to attend again next year!
