GDkit

Recently, when I was playing with Google Desktop SDK, an idea of a third party JavaScript library came in to my mind; which made myself to code a small JavaScript class with some reusable features.

That small JavaScript got wings and is hosted on Google Code. ;)

Checkout the newest project GDkit. It's a JavaScript library for Google Desktop Gadget developers. It's an easy way to add several cool features to your gadgets.

We released a BETA version (1.0) of the first GDkit library : Effects. The main goal is to create some wrapper classes where developers can wrap basic elements.

The example use of the 'Effects' library:

var ani = new Animation(elementX);
ani.setDuration(3000);
ani.fadeOut();

Will add fade out effect to the element named 'elementX'.

We are really looking forward to provide some other useful libraries as well. Whilst the 'Effects' library is getting improved GDkit developers are working on another new library called 'Widgets', which is to be released in near future.

Your comments & feedbacks always keep us alive !

Cheers!

CrossOver ----><

* I wanted to network my PC and Laptop for a long time but I couldn't find a proper way till last Wednesday. I heard about something called 'cross-over' cable, and I started to working on my job. :)

1> Making a cross-over cable.

- Bought a normal UTP cable and two RJ45s. Connected those jacks with the cable according to the cross-over. [Actually not by me :) ]

2> Setting up the network.

- Connected PC & Laptop using my cable but the indicators on NICs didn't response.
- So I searched every where including the internet to solve the problem and finally got it. :)
Reason: UTP cable didn't connected with a jack properly. After solving it..... Yeah! Network began to work. But in the network places.. it didn't show anything except the local machine.

3> Making network a live.

- [ It's 2.02 A.M. now I'm really sleepy :) cya soon... ] to be contd....
