Interesting effects of the new web August 7

Filed under Web development, tablefinder, web2.0 by admin | 0 comments

We noticed som funny effects of making a product only using web technologies. Our software at the restaurant is basically a webbrowser in full screen mode. Since it is normally the same screen displayed at all times we had to take that into account. Easy solution: a screen saver. But wait a minute… a javascript screensaver. That must be a first. (googling “javscript screensaver” had some hits I guess, but still)

I just got a bit surprised when I switched tab in firefox and noticed my test site had the screensaver on. In the context of the fullscreen and touchscreen hardware, it was really natural, but in my browser on my laptop in a tab… a bit odd.

However, maybe this is the next generation stuff? users stay at sites like netvibes too long that they request webbased screensavers. :) Or not… you never know… just a thought.

Exclusive preview launch at the European championship August 7

Filed under Web development, goteborg2006, tablefinder, web2.0 by admin | 0 comments

After a month of hard work we finally launched our exclusive preview at the presscenter at the European Championships in athletics in Gothenburg. We have installed our (alphaversioned) table management software at 5 top restaurants in the centre of Gothenburg and thus, these restaurants are bookable by the journalists at the presscenter. This is our first big test of the system, and a couple of days after launch, everything looks great.
