:eek: did someone patented this "beta thing"? we should.

No, really, it's annoying, everything now has a beta tag :mad:

it's some kind of web 2.0 marketing thing, probably cooked up in one of those hyper expensive webinars where people drink like fishes for two days then frantically write reports to justify the expense to the exec team. it annoys me as well. Beta, imm is when you soft release to test group for specific testing and feedback. when the public gets its hands on it it's 1.0. I'm not a marketing dude, though.

I'm trying to get my songs to pop up there all mp3's but nothing is happening...photos come up fine....when the webot app is running it should be able to find the mp3's since the photos are detected , hmmm anyone having any issues?

Hmm, my on-screen keyboard keeps popping up whenever I switch tabs. And further more the bot didn't work through my company's firewall even though it's a web app.

Gmail is in beta, this is alpha...

nice!, Ya i found out why it aint detecting, Your music needs to be in your My Music folder in the my documents, there is my default a my music folder if your running windows...

Re: WeBot
 
yes, that is the auto detect default. You can of course manually add music or photo photos directories from where ever you placed them -- remote hard drives, networked drives or just someplace other then where windows or mac does it for you.

sorry nedim, we work on port 8081 i/0 if your company is blocking that port there is not a lot we can do about it.

Gmail is in beta, this is alpha... <<<< google has $829 gazillion bucks and hundreds of engineers. We're a 6 person startup and added this interface of our app for Nokia in a matter of weeks. Be fair ;-)

Unfortunately, like in many other companies, those ports are blocked (don't ask me why). It would be nice if you could use standard ports 80 or 443 like jabber does.

In any case it's not that important if it works from the office, it should work fine from home since I'm the port master :-)

I apologize for being negative. I guess I got over-excited by the promise of this app. I tried Orb before and never managed to like it. Webot seems to be much simpler to use which is one of the signs of a good app and I promise to give it another chance :-)

If you guys added a support for video with on-the-fly transcoding I think you would have a winner.

This beta looks cool :)

A problem I've noticed using the Flash interface with my N800: the keyboard pops up each time I click an option (eg. music/photo icon on left hand-side). Quite annoying :confused: Anyone here having noticed the same?

Could some guide me on how to automatically start WeBot server on startup of my Linux (Ubuntu 7.10) box? TIA!
