Somehow, Cisco.com managed to get rid of all their lowercase t's today. I don't have a screenshot of my own, but I hope Neil Simmons don't mind that I've borrowed his.

So, in respect to the Cisco failure, the Habari Community made a plugin emulating the same "effect", and for now this site runs that plugin. Of course, it completely ruins the site and renders it pretty much useless, but it's still fun.

For those interested, the Cisco plugin is available for download.

As Cisco themselves put it, this is very much "high-ouch"

I often quote web sites on my blog. In WordPress this was made easy with the bookmarklet on post-new - just highlight some text and click the bookmarklet and you've got a new formatted post with the quoted text. Publish Quote is a plugin that provides this functionality for Habari. It's only been tested on a Mac using Firefox , Safari and Camino. Bug reports, feedback, or just comments letting me know you're using it are welcome.

Seems to work pretty nicely in Firefox 2.0.0.11 on Windows XP as well. Good one Michael.

I would love to see this extended to also do other things than open up a new post inside my Habari admin though. A lot of times I copy/hightlight stuff on other sites, for later quote/reference use. It would be great to be able to use something like this to put interesting, with a reference to the original URL, into some kind of administrative scratchpad inside the Habari admin.

I've made a new small plugin for Habari available, the jTagEditor plugin. This plugin makes the create content section use Jay Salvat's jTagEditor as a simple editor for creating/editing content.

Upcoming changes will be to use the full version of jTagEditor, instead of the current lite version. The plugin currently includes some files that only the full version will make use of, so consider this an interim version.

To be able to use the plugin, your Habari install need to be running SVN revision 919 or newer as Owen added some needed stack calls to admin section.

There are a couple of new Habari plugins available in the Habari-Contrib SVN repository.

Nearly a week ago I posted a little list of plugin ideas for Habari and I'm very happy that it's possible to disregard one of them already.

Robin Adrianse has announced the availability of his first version of Headcode, a plugin that allows you to insert data into the head- or footer-section of your theme. This allows for easy implementation of things like Google Analytics or ReInvigorate.

This plugins development cycle also works as a perfect example on how the Habari community works. Someone has an idea, another someone decides to implement it and to top it off the "official" Habari developers facilitates the development by adding core functionality that the new plugin requires. All of this, in about 5 days. Excellent!
