Review - Texas ATVs Website

March 28th, 2008 at 07:57am Under Reviews

My first impression towards this website is - it is a nice design, but is it complete?

It is clear that this website provides information about four wheel events. If you are into ATV off road racing, then you should check this out often. Texas ATVs gives four-wheeler enthusiasts a place to interact and share information. Members can use the site to find nearby trails, get tips from other people in the sport and more.

Functions

The website has incorporated a lot of functions, including:

  • Forum
  • Membership
  • Event Calender (coming soon)
  • Locate riding area (coming soon)
  • Upload videos
  • Upload photos

In terms of function, it is very comprehensive. It would be good if the not-ready functions are hidden until they are available.

Color

It is designed around blue, gray and red. It seems a bit dark though. Some elements should be added to brighten up the design.

Monetization

There is currently 1 ad banner running. The position of it is under the fold. It would be good if an above-the-fold ad banner space is present, as these spots would worth more.

Video

There is a video located at the bottom left corner of the website. However, it does not show clearly the purpose of the video. Some indication should be provided.

Summary

It is a nice website! Just bear in mind the attractiveness to the internet user, and also the usability.

New YouTube API

March 28th, 2008 at 07:43am Under Newest Technologies+ Web 2.0

Nobody don’t know YouTube nowadays. Whether you want to view some MTV, funny videos, information… they can now be found on YouTube. As long as you have a fast and stable internet connection, it is an enjoyment. And addictive.

Recently YouTube has some new API services for developers and partners. They are:

  • Upload videos and video responses to YouTube
  • Add/Edit user and video metadata (titles, descriptions, ratings, comments, favorites, contacts, etc)
  • Fetch localized standard feeds (most viewed, top rated, etc.) for 18 international locales
  • Perform custom queries optimized for 18 international locales
  • Customize player UI and control video playback (pause, play, stop, etc.) through software

With all these, the sky is your limit.

Mozilla Prism

March 28th, 2008 at 07:21am Under Newest Technologies+ Software+ Web 2.0

A summary of the Mozilla Prism is “a web browser that acts like desktop application”.  Mozilla Prism was formerly known as Webrunner.

I personally like using desktop application more than web, as the interface only contains the stuff that I need when I am on it.  I don’t need a back and forward button when writing my programmes.  I don’t need an address bar either.

Same for some web applications eg. Gmail, Calender etc.  You don’t need those as they are Ajax based.

Mozilla Prism has stripped out all these.  Hence, when running Ajax web applications, it does look like a desktop application.  Prism is an application that lets users split web applications out of their browser and run them directly on their desktop.

And hence, you can create individual icons for your application, to be placed on your desktop.

When they are run, these applications would run in their own window.

However, Mozilla Prism cannot be run offline.  As expected.

You can find more information about the Mozilla Prism here: http://labs.mozilla.com/2007/10/prism/
