I have never really had to work with Object Oriented programming for anything in the real world before. I have studied the theoretical implementations as well as done the course work required to make it happen, but this weekend I am getting my first taste of actually having to implement a solution (to an actual […]
What is the big deal about tags? You can tag photos, you can tag blog entries, and you can even tag your bookmarks. What is the point of tagging? I have just written the tag code for GITI. It is universal code that can be used by all modules for interacting with the GITI Tags […]
GITI’s biggest problem as far as development and module completion is my inability to create an effective and useful UI. I can’t see in my head how things should look and outside of the first few modules I don’t really know how I would really want to present things anyway. Cookbook is the present module […]
Upon a user request, in GITI Education, Time is now a relevant field for assignments. Basic time support has now been added to the Add, Edit, and View single assignment pages. With this update to the Education module also comes a change of intention for the “Date Assigned” and “Time Assigned” fields. The field labels […]
I finally got the base code written so now it is possible to: Add recipes Search by title List categories See recipes by category View recipes I still have to do the following: Add “Edit Recipe” functionality Add “Ingredient search” Refine interface Create side toolbar It is still very basic, but it does work 🙂 […]
Module Status Description Address Book Stable Converted from its independent state, Address Book is fully functional with no presently pending issues or incomplete features. The module is however, due for an overhaul to bring it into the GITI space more completed as well as to refine its mission. Bookmarks Dead Module was started a few […]
We’ve all seen a cookbook and there are tons of web-based as well as desktop applications for cookbooks as well. So why would I want to write my own for GITI? First of all, because its GITI, it is MY Personal Information Manager. Second, I like things a little more custom to the application of […]
One of GITI’s least developed features is called “Quick Key”. Basically, it is a shortcut system for GITI. Type your command in the box (a “key” command, not the fully GITI path) and it takes you where you want to go. Unfortunately, they are very simple, and most rely on module functionality to make them […]
GITI comes across as a very timid web app. It doesn’t even attempt to be Web 2.0 at all, aside from a little CSS, but things are not as simple as they appear on the surface. There are many functions and tools hidden in GITI that have hardly ever made it to a menu. I […]
ok, the title sounds bad, but it really is not about my instructors, its about my instructor objects. Today I have been working on moving some things around and creating a bond between the AddressBook and Education modules. I want my instructors (present and future) to be registered with the AddressBook so that I can […]
