I love the web. The web should allow anyone to access any experience that they need without the need for native install or content walled garden.
I've decided to make the Topicala software distributable so anyone can run it. I'll release the code soon, after re-deploying it under kinaln.co.uk. It'll be maintainable and modifiable, allowing others to have a similar setup on their own sites. If you're interested, let me know!
I'm building a hierarchical tag directory for Topicala and need your help populating it. You can add tags via the web interface or by using the API: http://www.topicala.com/api/add/[TagName] to add a new tag and http://www.topicala.com/api/add/[ParentTag]/[ChildTag] to create parent/child relationships. Your contributions will eventually allow users to filter search results more effectively.
My tag directory has been updated to incorporate Del.icio.us integration. It fetches RDF data from del.icio.us to display the most popular tagged items. Explore examples for tags like RDF and RSS using the provided links.
Someone searched for "directory explorer c#" and landed on my site, likely not finding what they needed. This post clarifies how to use C# for directory exploration. It covers using .NET's System.IO namespace, specifically the File and Directory classes, for tasks like checking file existence (File.Exists) and getting a list of subdirectories (Directory.GetDirectories). This information will hopefully be helpful to future visitors with similar searches.
I'm building a tag directory separate from my main content. This approach aims to enhance indexing and provide a centralized, dynamic display, similar to Technorati. It allows me to tag my directories and offers a new way to present related information. Check it out and let me know what features you'd like to see!
This post answers the question of how to determine if a given file path in C# is a directory. It explains how to use the File.GetAttributes() method and the FileAttributes.Directory property to check for the directory attribute. The post provides a boolean expression ((File.GetAttributes(path) & FileAttributes.Directory) == FileAttributes.Directory) to effectively perform this check.
