ticalc.org Updates
Posted by Ryan on 1 April 2013, 15:43 GMT
You may have noticed over the past few weeks that there have been issues on the site with
transfer speed and server lag. For the past month or so, we have been working diligently on
the backend of the site to make several improvements, optimizations, and feature
additions.
Thanks to the tireless efforts of the ticalc.org staff, we are happy to announce that
ticalc.org is in the last stages of rolling out a large site-wide overhaul. A number of
features will be added to improve both the usability and visibility of the site, including a
number of Web 2.0 features such as:
- Website "Themes" for personalized user experiences
- Facebook "Like" buttons for sharing your favorite programs
- Optional embedded Twitter feeds of your favorite authors for greater social
visibility
- Flash version of the upload portal for increased security
- A range of Java embeds for improved user experience
- AJAX all up in this mo'
You can expect to see these features slowly cropping up over the next few weeks as we finish
working out the kinks on our side. We hope that you enjoy the upcoming ticalc.org experience!

Ooh, I can't wait for these updates! I especially like the social media integration. Make sure to include a "share" button as well as a like button on all programs so we can tell all our friends!

These are exactly the features that ticalc.org has been missing! Maybe you could also add a section where we can upload image memes about graphing calculators and the community.

Could you please integrate the file archive with vti or ti-emu? That'd be pretty boss and save me a lot of time.

Haha, nice one! It took me a while to see it though... No, the real news is that the lag and server outages were because you were moving all of the TICalc.org website over to the new TI84 Color edition and you guys were having issues with the suckishness of the basic and had to recode the entire thing in assembly before finally just giving up and choosing to move back to the old server! :P lol, that would have been funny given the times!
