Back to blogging. My journey on jQuery and "Fire Eagle"

I m back to blogging, huh ! and after a gap of 2 months :( Feeling bad about it as I couldn't write since past couple of months. I was going crazy buzy in projects and operational activities within organisation. I need to learn a lot on "Time Management" :)

Nevertheless, was atleast able to resume my quest on learning jQuery and writting advance aggregator which I left in middle (for version 1.2) during Feb'09. Made lot of mistakes today while working on my code but learnt quite a few aspects on widgets, events customization, minified code, costomizing plugins etc. I hope to release v.1.2 beta by mid May'09 as I am still struggling towards time management :)

BTW did you use "Fire Eagle" ? Today I logged on my Fire Eagle account and explored few apps. Fire Eagle is a Yahoo! owned service that acts as a store for user location information. The genius of Fire Eagle is its sheer simplicity. It does absolutely nothing beyond storing your current location, and disseminating it to your choice of sites and applications.
