Over the weekend, I downloaded Sitecore Xpress and spent some time developing a Sitecore Desktop application based on XAML, C# and the Sitecore API. Here's the result:

Ext JS 5, Sencha Fiddle and Parse.com
about 10 years ago - 6 comments
As I’ve used Sencha Fiddle, I’ve really come to enjoy how simple it makes testing ideas, exploring aspects of Ext JS, and debugging my code. One of the really nice features is the ability to simulate AJAX requests. While this is REALLY nice for simulating the loading of remote data, one place where it has…

SocialMe: A Social Networking Experiment in Sitecore
about 15 years ago - 1 comment
In a recent post, I linked a video that outlined my initial experiences with building XAML applications for the Sitecore desktop. Coming off that experience, I was super excited to try out another application–SocialMe is the result. Basically, SocialMe allows Sitecore users to save social networking credentials (currently Flickr, Twitter, and Facebook) to their Sitecore…

We are currently running 9 (or so) sites through it, although we'll have nearly 20 installed by the end of Spring 2010. I like Sitecore quite a bit, so when I found out that they offer a free, downloadable personal developer version…

Quick Look at ScrnShots' API
about 16 years ago - No comments
A few months ago, I ran across ScrnShots. It's basically a service for uploading, tagging and sharing screenshots of websites. This is pretty useful for me given my profession :). One of the things, however, that has always impressed me about the site is how easy and fun to use it is. It features really…

ColdFusion and Twitter
about 16 years ago - No comments
Over the last several months, I've gotten into Twitter ALOT. I find it to not only be fun, but it is also an interesting social experiment. I've been surprised by how many great resources I've come across because of my followers quickly twittering something they think is cool/helpful. Naturally, the next stage in my relationship…

Great post, Joel! Having this do for admins only could be enough or you can introduce a special role for this, or check for item:admin or even extend the accessRights types in web.config introducing "item:unlock" security setting 😉
You know we have a Shared Source Library where you can check in the code 🙂 http://trac.sitecore.net/Index
