Yet another spinner app -- web app v. desktop app

[thediesel1]

Ok, I'm putting the finishing touches on a content spinner application...

It does all the basic goodies

What do people want more,

a.) web-based subscription product
cheaper + pay as you go

b.) desktop product
1-time pay - you own it.



thx.

build it in adobe air, release it for both platforms under both payment models.

I"m leaning toward C# as it stands now...I'll look into adobe air.

C# ftw. Fuck the haters.

Yeah, the core framework is portable.

C# in VS2010 is fucking better then sliced bread though.

I want my spinner running on a TI-83

TI-83 is a graphing calculator by Texas Instruments. TI-83 Graphing Calculator for math and science by Texas Instruments - US and Canada

Pretty standard for any advanced science, physics, or math classes.

Oh yeah do it up in Java so we can run it anywhere.

Yeah, I hear you dchuk, and I'm actually thinking about the GUI with the idea of building the GUI using the library just like any other outside client would. The core framework is in python to make use of the some easy to use text manipulation libraries ... (and I'm trying to play with python...not that im a great coder anyway).

Ideally you could take the same settings and move from the desktop GUI to a more automated server-side environment (in the future) ... that's sort of the medium term goal. :food-smiley-002:

Anyway PM me if anyone has any great ideas they don't want public :bowdown:

dchuk did you mean like a drop-in .dll or a web based api?

web based api. I believe the best spinner currently has a public one now, but I hate their developers so if yours is any better people will like it.

ok cool.

TBS is a solid product, so that is definitely something to shoot for; however, GUIs are a large pain in the ass in comparison to an api only model.

WHAT THE FUCK WHY ARE YOU CALLING OUT MY SIG....



Let me know if you use the API at all. I know it exists, I just don't like Jon Leger so I haven't used it myself.
