  • me: got it!
  • i was thinking of that last night!
  • nice.
  • Biz: that is good stuff
  • me: i'm going to hook up the invite system.
  • Biz: sweet baby jesus
  • : P
  • me: then, we have to figure out the sms in stuff. just have to work out permissions at this point
  • Biz: ok
  • me: do you remember what the invite sms said? the one with the pin? i've lost the graffle file.
  • Biz: was it
  • ev: waiting for you to go to twttr.com and enter your PIN: 4013
  • i think that was it
  • me: oh yeah. what about when you're coming in cold from the site?

  • me: i'm getting sms sending out right now
  • csshsh: oh! yeah?
  • does it work well so far?
  • me: yeah, about to deploy it. soon. have to figure out a better way to abstract it. for now, it's in the user model.
  • csshsh: okay..
  • i will take a look at it, in a bit.. maybe i have some ideas..
  • okay.. quick ideas..
  • i would put the sms class in app/models
  • it's part of the domain model..
  • me: a new sms model?
  • csshsh: na. i would move the one that currently is in lib into app/models
  • me: really?
  • hrm
  • csshsh: and as far as testing goes, i would just stub out the send method
  • yep.. it really is part of the domain model of twttr
  • some people think that only objects that inherit from ActiveRecord: :Base should go there. but thats not true..
  • an sms is as much part of the domain model as user, status, etc
  • me: hrm. yeah, that class really needs to be worked on. i guess we should put the sms char limits in there as well.
  • csshsh: ah. yeah. true..
  • it's gonna be so nice to try out the sms implementation =)
  • me: yeah!
  • it's working now.
  • following
  • csshsh: nice!!

  • me: your whole tiwitter is green!
  • did you set the <style>?
  • Biz: yah, i put a bkg color in my update
  • me: nice.
  • i put a span tag in mine.
  • so it should just be that status entry that's green.
  • Biz: i used a font tag on my latest deal
  • but my twitter page is wacked causa the old one
  • : P
  • me: yeah, we'll have to minimize that.
  • maybe you can set another background to change it back?
  • Biz: is it on the front page for you now?
  • me: just says happy st. patricks day
  • Biz: and that's making the whole page green?
  • its not on firefox
  • I'll change it
  • me: not for me. only when i go to your page.
  • click on biz, that is.
  • Biz: oh right, yah
  • its the one that says" Biz: listening to the pixies live from dublin"
  • that's doing it
  • me: the background?
  • hrm
  • Biz: yah
  • me: want me to change it?
  • Biz: sure
  • me: this is why we need that strikethrouh. maybe it cancels out all styling as well.
  • Biz: that'd be good
  • me: oh, you put a body tag in there.
  • we should disallow that.
  • Biz: yah
  • me: how about that
  • Biz: good its white again

  • csshsh: oh! by the way.. that statuses_including_friends thing with a time range works:
  • users(: jack).statuses_including_friends(10.hours.ago, 7.hours.ago)
  • me: nice!
