Tumblr Uptime | Chad Scira
https://chadscira.com/project/4ed1cb2e54cf7d5b39000009/Tumblr-Uptime
Last updated 6 years ago. Was a project that stemmed from Tumblr Cloud, I needed a way to figure out if Tumblr's API was broken. This page provides you with Tumblr's current API status. The API method's are checked every 5 minutes for valid responses, and are benchmarked. You should use Tumblr Uptime if you want to provide a great user experience even when Tumblr is not working. Plus you get to tell the user that it's not your fault for the crappy uptime. At the PayPal X.

Tumblr Cloud | Chad Scira
https://chadscira.com/project/4ed1cb2e54cf7d5b39000006/Tumblr-Cloud
Last updated 6 years ago. Was one of my first viral applications. The original version was extremely simple, it just made an image of your top words. Since then it has really evolved into a full fledged application. Tumblr Cloud was one of the first applications to use Tumblr's new OAuth protocol. The index page is pretty simple and straight forward. Once you generate a cloud something like this gets posted to your tumblelog. Every user gets a page that showcases their past clouds they generated.

Last updated 6 years ago. Was a project I thought would be fun. The goal was to provide website statistics for millions of websites, and also get into chrome addon development. You can search a keyword, domain, IP, ASN or DNS server. I made seven different top pages: Countries, Hosts, Web Technologies, Server Types, Keywords, Sites, Name Servers, Pageranks. Each domain has a full overview page, showing the sites demographics and traffic rankings.

Passive Video | Chad Scira

Last updated 6 years ago. I was sick of having to write custom BBCODE's to show video from sites. I needed a way to have a video embed by just submitting a link. I also wanted it to be done client-side. Most of the video sites had all the info needed in their url to create an embed. Some of them didn't, which is why I created special cases for those services. In the end the product supported the following sites:.

Who The Tweet | Chad Scira

Last updated 6 years ago. Was a project I freelanced on. The goal was to make a word cloud of what the user posts about the most. This was probably one of the first projects I worked on that used word blacklisting, and counting. It inspired some ideas for Tumblr Cloud.

Live Topic | Chad Scira
https://chadscira.com/project/4ed1cb2e54cf7d5b39000003/Live-Topic
Last updated 6 years ago. The goal of this project was to make vBulletin an interactive bulletin board. There is also logic for the viewer, the viewer of the thread has to be in an active state to see responses. An active user state is determined upon the users actions, if no actions were made in X seconds then the user is marked as inactive. You can test Live Topic with two users, you will see how amaizing this is. And probably spontaneously combust.

Last updated 6 years ago. Terminator Salvation / Resistance 2018. Was a project I worked on while I was working for Sony Pictures. This was the first time I ever got to interact with twitters API, and it was also when twitter was experiencing horrible growing pains. Twitters API was up one minute and down the next. The end product got press, even @ev.

Last updated 6 years ago. Julie and Julia - Feed Your Inspiration. Was a project I worked on while I was working for Sony Pictures. I was impressed when I saw that my next Twitter related project was going to be for the movie Julie and Julia. The client wanted dual twitter realtime streams that were similar to Twistori. That could be swapped with three alternative streams. They also wanted a box that the user could tweet from.

Twitter Toss-Up | Chad Scira

Last updated 6 years ago. Wheel of Fortune - Twitter Toss-Up. Was a project I worked on while I was working for Sony Pictures. This was a large project, which had insane deadlines. The end product was a one page site, and multiple admin pages. The core of the system was in a cronjob that would run every 10 minutes.
