Quisition Updates

My flashcard site, Quisition has now been moved over to WebFaction and I took the opportunity to clean up some code and make some incremental feature enhancements.

You can read more about them on the Quisition site. One new feature is the ability to reset long overdue cards. So if you tried out Quisition a while ago and would like to come back without a huge backlog of old cards, this feature is for you!

I've also implemented an alpha version of the testing parts of the site specifically styled for the iPhone. If you're interested in trying it out, email me and I'll tell you how to access it.

Looks like fun, but requires yet another username and password. That's enough to turn me away.

Can we please have authentication via OpenID? http://openid.net/

I'm working on it.

I wonder if you're still working on cleese...

Regarding the iPhone version: I like the idea of using this on-the-go but I don't have/want an iPhone. However I do have a smartphone with a decent(ish) browser, a Sony Ericsson Symbian one with a version of Opera. So I signed up with the idea of trying this out and after forgetting about it for a week I've done just that.

Sadly, the http://www.quisition.com/i/ version doesn't work on my device. It gets to the "loading..." page and just stays there. I don't expect you to debug this for every possible mobile device, but is there anything actually iPhone/Safari specific you are doing or is this something which should work anywhere?

Or to put this another way: can we have http://www.quisition.com/m/ please? :-)

Mark, not recently but I'd like to get back to it at some stage.

James Tauber on Sept. 10, 2007:

Roberto, I don't do anything iPhone specific, the only different with the /i/ variant is I remove some content and use a different stylesheet.

Does the normal UI work in your phone?

Email me if you're interested in helping me test things out as I'd love to get a /m/ working :-)
