Burnalytics - Ruby Feedburner and Google Analytics Library
Monday, October 30th, 2006
Update: A typo in FeedBurner.rb has been fixed
I’d thought I’d release the library behind eribium’s Feedburner and Google Analytics integration.
Prerequisites are:
A Google Analytics account
A FeedBurner account (and awareness turned on)
Hpricot
Gruff (Rmagick) - for the graph support
The api goes like this:
# Feedburner:
# Gets feed data and creates graph
feed = Burnalytics::FeedBurner.new(”Eribium”)
data = feed.get_data
graph = Burnalytics::Graphs::FeedBurner.new(data)
graph.generate
# creates:

Gearing up for a new Juggernaut
Monday, October 30th, 2006
Juggernaut is almost ready for its next release. I’ve added the latest version to the svn in the hope that people will have the chance to test it (and catch any potential problems).
New features are:

Event-Machine push server
General clean up (mainly javascript.
Things I want to get into the next release:
Actionscript reconnection (after a specified amount of […]
More information about Apollo
Sunday, October 29th, 2006
It’s exciting to see more information about Apollo being released.
One thing that interests me is whether Adobe will ditch Flash’s crossdomain security policy.
Cairngorm 2.1 released

Grab it from the labs.
Perhaps the Cairngorm docs team could perhaps make a few demos demonstrating what’s changed?

Eribium and Stats
Friday, October 20th, 2006
Instead of having custom stats built in, Eribium will directly integrate with Feedburner and Google Analytics. I’ve gone down this route since firstly it seems that most people use them and I’d rather stats to the experts. The Eribium Admin will be able to fetch basic graphs from Google Analytics and Feedburner but obviously you’ll […]
Juggernaut and Flash 9
Friday, October 20th, 2006
With the release of Flash 9 Beta for Linux I’m planning on upgrading Juggernaut to Flash 9. This will solve some of the issues surrounding Juggernaut and Linux (such as lost connections etc) that some people are experiencing. Obviously those concerned that their user-base won’t have Flash 9 installed can still use Flash 7 (available […]
Eribium’s Exception Manager
Sunday, October 15th, 2006
Eribium’s demo app was down the other day due to some obscure ‘input, output’ error. Luckily a guy gave me the heads up and a quick restart of the server solved the problem.
However, this got me thinking. What could be done to reduce downtime and notify the site owner of the problem in a quick […]
