Have you heard about Google’s latest service – Google Cloud Print?

It’s a cool service which allows you to print stuff from your home printer using any other computer in the world or even (and especially) mobile devices.

The service is still in beta, so right now you can only print through mobile devices with HTML5 compliant browsers which can access Google’s Gmail and Docs mobile version.
They claim that their next step is embedding this functionality in Chrome OS notebooks.

It kind of looks like they skipped over Google Chrome’s version.
That’s why I developed an extension for Google Chrome through which you may print using the Google Cloud Print service to any of your connected printers.

I encountered quite a few technical challenges while developing this extension. But I’ve overcome all of then and I’m proud to present the final outcome.
Everyone is welcome to download and study the extension’s source code.

Tip of the day – follow your curiosity and instincts. Only good can come out of it.
Or like National Geographic says: “Live Curious“.

Anyhow, I had some fun with what used to be a wireless keyboard and this is the end result:

The odd ball at the top acts as the mouse. It’s surprisingly comfortable and accurate.
The upper trigger acts as a left mouse button.
The lower trigger acts as a right mouse button.
The scroll wheel at the bottom acts as a… scroll wheel.

You can turn the remote sideways and control any TV using the mini universal remote control glued to the side (thanks eBay!).

It comes real handy when watching TV series while in bed (oh the laziness!).

The service/application offers you six boxes in which you may type whatever you want. e.g. memos, notes, temporary data or tasks.

The data is saved within each keystroke one makes. It’s stored using the browser’s cookies.

Adding extra features always costs some of the simplicity of the application. And many people try to find the “right” balance. In this project, I decided to go to an extreme – super easy & no features. Some people may like it and some may not.

The Big Geek II

Startupseeds

This event was organized by StartupSeeds, a non-profit organisation encouraging teen Israeli entrepreneurs to make their first steps in the entrepreneurship world. Whether it’s by giving them a place to talk about technology, or by conducting monthly meetings with the most interesting lectures (for free!). StartupSeeds even assists young innovative kids with starting their own startups by providing them financial help and the best mentors available. The online forum and meetings created a large and friendly community for the Israeli teenager who breaths technology and internet.

What’s the event about?

Sixteen kids (Ages 14-18), divided into four “teams”, worked 24 hours non-stop on their unique idea for a startup. Each team raised a fully working service within those 24 hours (!). While the projects are not breath-taking nor unbelievable, they are still awesome considering the time spent working on them. Actually, they’re awesome not matter what.

The project that my team and I developed is FixedInch. It’s a free online service for displaying objects in their real size over any screen in the world. We have discussed the possibility to continue working on it, and we most likely will, in the near future.

What else can I say? It was an awesome experience that I will never forget. It was 24 hours of fun and jokes, some of could not be told anywhere else like (via @TalDromi):

“Let’s use JSON for this”
“Who’s this Jason you are talking about?”
“XML’s brother!”

Startup Weekend Israel 2009

This is a world-wide known event, which started in 2007. Since then it took place in over 50 cities and growing (!). This is kind of a grown-up version of the Big Geek.

During the first day, 140 Israeli entrepreneurs pitched 50 unique ideas which turned into thirteen motivated teams. Each team consisted of about 4-8 people who designed and developed their idea for three days. The second day was all about work and food (lots of it!). On the third day of the event, the teams finished their work and presented their project.

My team and I worked on Frayer Meter – an online free service that suggests the most economical cellular plan according to one’s needs. While it’s not fully functional, we plan to continue working on it as we believe in it’s potential.

First, how is the video embedded in the post? It uses the following syntax:

Now you can embed it like you would normally do.

Second, how do we get the thumbnail itself after we extracted the video key? We build the image’s URL with the following syntax:
http://i2.ytimg.com/vi/$video_key/default.jpg

Now, how do we put all of this together into a plugin that inserts the thumbnails?
You don’t have to because I have already done it for you.

• Visit the plugin page of YouTube Thumbnailer
• Download the plugin here
• Unzip it’s contents
• Upload the folder you unzipped to /wp-content/plugins/ using your favorite FTP client.
• Go to your admin panel and activate the plugin called “Youtube Thumbnailer”

This plugin runs through the posts in your blog and if it finds a YouTube video embedded in a post it sets the thumbnail to be the video’s thumbnail.
That’s it, have fun playing with the configuration.

If you encounter any issues please comment/contact me.

• youtube thumbnail script
• youtube embed custom thumbnail
• wordpress plugin youtube thumbnail
• youtube thumbnail script code
• youtube thumbnailer plugin
• Youtube Thumbnailer wordpress
• youtube thumb script
• wordpress youtube script
• custom thumbnail for embedded youtube

Now you can download and use version 1.3 that works perfect.
By the way if you have an idea for a brand new plugin – contact me :)

This plugins allows you to add your own buttons to the post edtor’s toolbar.
I’m talking about the buttons that you see above your content text area when editing posts (b,i,link,img,ul,li).
For example you can add a “h3″ button to make subheaders in your post.
There are virtually endless buttons you can add.

Here is the plugins interface:

You can visit the plugin’s WordPress.org page, download the plugin right away and upload it into your plugins directory.
