Getting Started with Firefox extension - Diigo help - 2 views

  •  Feature Highlight: Highlights Diigo saves the day with "highlights". Highlights let you select the important snippets on a page and store them in your library with the page's bookmark. Let's try it. Just open a page, maybe one of your old-school bookmarks or one of your new cat bookmarks, and find the information on that page you actually care about. Select that important text. Got it? Okay, now put your hemet on, 'cause this might blow your mind! Click the highlight icon on the Diigo toolbar. It's the one with the "T" on a page with a yellow highlighter. You will notice that the selected text gets a yellow background. This means that the text has been saved in your library, and as long as you have the Diigo add-on the text will be highlighted on the page! How's that for easy?   Now you've highlighted the text. It will appear in your library within the bookmark for the page it is on. Go to your library and you can see how it works. If you're not sure how to get to your library, just click the second icon on the toolbar (Diigo icon to the left of the search bar) and then select "My Library »".
  • Sticky Notes on the Web What? I can put a sticky note on a web page? How? Oh, that's right! Diigo. Just right-click anywhere on the page and choose to "add a floating sticky note". Type up your note and choose "Post", then move the note anywhere on the page. You have to type a note first, before you move it where you want, otherwise there's nothing to move!

AppWarp - Multiplayer Gaming on the Cloud : now with websocket power! | App42 PaaS Back... - 0 views

  • We are excited to introduce our javascript SDK for AppWarp. This will allow developers to quickly build engaging real-time multiplayer HTML5 games and apps. Our javascript SDK uses websocket technology for fast asynchronous communication with other clients through the cloud. This is better as it does away with the inconvenient AJAX polling paradigm and doesn’t require any browser plugin to be installed. Read more benefits about websockets here. In a nutshell, it means your network communication layer is lightweight and fast. Since AppWarp server supports connections from android, ios, wp7, j2me and now websockets – communication is truly cross-platform. This means users playing the browser flavor of your game can interact in real-time even with users who are on the corresponding native flavors. Currently the Javascript SDK supports Firefox and Chrome browsers. We will soon add support for the to be released IE 10 browser.
