i don't know how 90% of my conversations with people started revolving around me being single, but i'm really getting tired of it. another few close brushes with relationships, but now i'm through. i stayed true so far - no relationships in 2012!
So many people wanted to get into Tabulas, so I opened up registrations for the first time in a few weeks - and what happened? A bunch of spammers came in as well. I wonder if they've had an automated script that just has been running.
Oh well - for the time being, I'm manually checking the registered users and wiping away the spammers. Only have to deal with this problem for one day.
So, I've finally gotten the new editor up on Tabulas!
You can access it at http://tabulas.com/cp/editor/
Features? Well, it's simplified significantly for the writing experience. The hope is that it encourages more long-form entry writing.
The editor box autoscales to the height of your content, so it reduces the "double scrollbar" problem that's on the current editor.
It also features a drag-and-drop image uploader (and a multi-select image uploader) which should make sharing images much, much easier.
And best - autosave. It will autosave whatever you're writing into drafts so you don't have to worry about explicitly saving! I do need to do some more work to prevent accidental loss (for example, if you load a draft, then start writing a new entry in the same box, it will wipe away the old draft), but it's a great start.
For example, here is a photo of me at Oktoberfest:
And here I am at Max's wedding:
(Sometimes the editor has problems with problems with the heights when images are there - a bug I'll surely nail down).
I'm not requiring this as the default, but I would highly suggest you play with it and help me work out any issues with it - it will become the default soon enough!
And here is a partial screenshot of me authoring this page:
