Farewell, Mark.

Monday, November 17th, 2008

We’ve just put up our last project – part of our multi-faceted join-flow redesign – with Mark before he was hired away by some unknown startup.

Mark was key to our redesign back in March 2007, and he helped translate the ideas and brand we had bouncing around in our collective heads into a coherent message and design. We loved […]

Ben speaks in Denver

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

In a couple of weeks, I’ll be speaking at my first conference: Defrag 2008. I’ll be on a panel addressing the question, “Can identity become a filter for information overload?”
In case you’ll be in Denver on Nov. 3rd-4th, you should check it out. I think it’s going to be an incredible conference, and I’m not just […]

django + vim

Friday, October 17th, 2008

I’ve finally weaned myself off Komodo, since the vim bindings had just enough tiny errors to annoy me, and I was never satisfied with how long it took to find and open a file inside the project.
The one thing I was really missing in vim, though, was solid code-completion feature. After much haranguing, I finally […]

Better links!

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

We just pushed some changes for a long-standing request: opening links in new windows.
We’ve also recently updated the guidelines.
We hope you enjoy how easy it is to return to your addiction!

Tipping our hat to Django…

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

We started building Fluther on top of the Django platform two years ago, and it’s been an absolute pleasure. Using Django turned out to be one of the best technology decisions that we’ve made, and we’re proud to be using this excellent platform.

Django just reached the big 1.0 marker, and we wanted to say, “Congratulations!”
Thanks […]

A Flutherer is Born

Friday, July 4th, 2008

I’m happy to introduce the newest (or at least youngest) member of the Fluther community.

Sometimes it’s best to keep your mouth shut and let the picture do the talking:

Kudos to uberbatman for blowing our minds using the Spore Creature Creator.

Does anybody have Fluther wallpaper?

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

This question, asked by Foolaholic sparked some very creative answers from johnpowell, robmandu, delirium.
Can you find yourself in phoenyx’s collage? Don’t feel slighted if you didn’t make it. If every user was included, the collage would require over 12 million pixels.

You wrote a story!

Friday, May 9th, 2008

We have to give props when props are due. And they’re due.

Remember that question: Can the Fluther collective write a coherent story? Well, the collective did write a story. And it was awesome. So awesome, in fact, that it was published. We know, it’s rad.
We tip our hat to richardhenry for putting this all together. […]
