Last call ! Storytlr.com witll shutdown on Feb 28th.

Hello storytellers,

A couple months ago, we announced that we were going to stopoperating our service on December 31st and open source the platform.Following some requests, we have kept the service running a bit longerto leave you enough time to setup your self hosted systems and migrateyour data.

The time is now up. We will effectively shutdown the service anddestroy the data at the end of this month. Users visiting your sitewill be directed to a static page announcing the closing of the site.

We also introduce a new site: storytlr.org,this landing page will direct you to new releases of the open sourceplatform, and to our community pages, mailing list, irc channel andmore.

The story continue, and we hope you'll be part of it !

Cheers,

Laurent & Alard

Come in, we are now Open !

Hello storytellers,

As promised a while ago, we are open sourcing our platform. A first version is now available at http://storytlr.googlecode.com with a detailed set of instructions on how to install.

With this code, you can host your own storytlr on your own server(or on a shared hosting environment). By default, it is setup as asingle user mode, but you can easily change it to a multi user host andtherefore reproduce the exact service we are hosting on the currentstorytlr.com.

We release the code under an Apache 2 license, which is nonrestrictive. This means that you can do anything with this, even createa successful business :-)

If you have questions, issues or ideas, please post them on the mailing list.We will do our best to monitor and answer them. We also count on yourhelp to provide support to other users having trouble installing.

We are looking forward to your feedback and plan to keep on workingon this in the next weeks to bring it to a stable 1.0 release.

Thanks a lot for your ongoing support and tweets,

Cheers,

-Laurent and Alard

Comment by diamondtearzon 30 Dec 09 at 18:54 CETWonderful platform. Thanks for sharing it with the community! Iinstalled it at http://unity3dstreamas a shared stream for the Unity Game Engine Developer Network and amlooking forward to making some additions and contributing them to thecommunity. Comment by khurton 16 Jan 10 at 19:02 CETBummer. Now anyone wanting to use this has to hire and expert.

I think advocates for open source are really advocates for consulting services. You either grok it or hire someone who does. Comment by danieldevineon 21 Jan 10 at 2:12 CETkhurt this is a newly open source piece of code so of course it has rough edges on the installation.
Aftera few bugs have been fixed it should be a simple case of extracting thefiles from a .zip and following 6 simple instructions!
I haveinstalled it at my site at ddevnet {dot} net (there are too manyspammers here to safely just give you the normal URL).

Also,because of the way Storytlr works if I wanted to set up an instance andinvite random people I easily can - I could even convert my currentsite to be a multi-user install in just a minute of work! Comment by khürton 21 Jan 10 at 21:31 CET@danieldevine

Ican compile my own Apache, perl and PHP with OpenSSL etc from source... and yet after a week screwing with storytlr I don't have a workinginstall. The storytlr discussion group has not helped much withinformation either. I hope you can understand my frustration. Comment by khürton 21 Jan 10 at 21:32 CET@danieldevine

It is a sad day today. We have decided to stop operating Storytlr on December 31st. More details here: http://twurl.nl/rklyabAuthor: storytlr

11:10

Storytlr will stop operating on December 31st 2009

Thetitle says it all, we have decided to stop operating Storytlr in 10weeks, on December 31st 2009. The reason is simple: our lives havemoved on, kids were born, house were bought, new projects appeared andwe don't have time anymore to operate this service properly.

We have spent the last months looking for alternatives, potentialpartners, and even thought about creating a startup around thisproject. Yet, in the end, nothing did really make sense for us and wehave decided to pull the plug. It was a tough decision to make, it is asad day, and we feel sorry for our passionate users who have put somuch effort into their page and who have helped us improve the servicethrough their many comments.

This is why we have also decided to open source the platform. Nottoday. It will involve first a major refactoring, since at the momentit looks more like a giant spaghetti than an easy to install package.We don't know when it will ready, but we will do our best to do it assoon as possible. Please get in touch if you want to help with thiseffort.

In the meanwhile, lets focus on what this means for you:

Registration of new accounts is now closed.
On January 1st 2010, the servers will be gone, and so will all the data, accounts, etc... that we aggregated over the last year.
All your data can be retrieved through our Backup tool into some simple CSV files that can then easily be processed in order to be imported in other tools.
You'll also soon be able to download a zip archive of your binary files (pictures & mp3s that you have uploaded).
We have created a group for the community to meet, discuss and exchanges ideas on other potential services to use. We'll also monitor it and answer support questions.
If you have specific needs and/or concerns, feel free to mail us at support@storytlr.com

Finally, we wanted to say thank you, to all of you who havecontributed to the success of storytlr. It was a fascinatingexperience, we have learned a lot and, more important, we have met somany great people in the storytlr community.

Thanks to all, Cheers,

-Laurent & Alard

But the service was just half of what was really needed to explode ;-)

Hope, that all this work will not be lost.

Is it anyway to have a "storytlr package" for everyone's server ?

What about, a Public subscription at Brussels Betagroup level, to keep this service alive ?

If you need help, I'd be glad to give a hand (or two) ;-)

Comment by vigrxon 7 Feb 10 at 20:14 CETVigRX Plus™ is an herbal "male enhancement" supplement. Because it hasnot been approved by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), themanufacturer cannot directly claim that the supplement treats anydisease (including impotence). However, the advertisements for thisproduct strongly suggest that VigRX Plus will:

Treat impotence
Enlarge the penis
Prevent premature ejaculation
Increase sex drive.

Althoughthe Web site for this supplement states that it is a "doctor-approvedformula," none of the "doctors" that endorse the product are actualmedical doctors (one is a clinical psychologist and the other is anaturopath).

Treat impotence
Enlarge the penis
Prevent premature ejaculation
Increase sex drive.

Hectic two days: service unavailable and missing twitter updates

Dear all,

As some of you have noticed and expressed on twitter, our servicehas encountered some issues over the last two days. Here is a quickupdate on the status and the actions we are taking to solve this.

Service unavailable: This was caused to a DNS issue at our provider, which has now been fixed. Slightly more details on this issue here.

Missing/slow twitter updates: This is a moreserious issue for us. Gnip, our provider for all the realtime updates,had to stop distributing the twitter firehose on June 19th, asexplained here.This means that we don't receive realtime updates anymore and that wehad to revert to polling. However, due to throttling constraintsimposed by Twitter, the updates are slow (can be up to 6 hours for yourtweets to appear). We are actively working with Twitter to find asolution and get early access to their new stream API.

Besides that, everything is running smooth. We have slowed down onnew developments in the last weeks, mainly due to an increase insunshine and BBQs :-) Yet, don't worry, we are still around andstrongly commited to keep on evolving the platform. It is just too muchfun too stop :-)

As always, thanks a lot for your support, and don't hesitate to send us your feedback !

Cheers,

-Laurent

Interview of @eschnou at Google I/O

Asyou know, I went to San Francisco for a week in May, on invitation byGoogle to demo Storytlr at I/O. Here is a short interview they didduring the conference. This way, you can now put a face on Storytlr(the other face, the one of Alard, is missing as he wasn't able to joinme at I/O).

Author: itspanther Comment by Pierre-Olivier Carleson 22 Jun 09 at 11:43 CESTInteresting points of view... specially the part when you explain that scalability is not that easy to plan :-) Comment by blogon 25 Jun 09 at 22:36 CESTHi PO, thanks for stopping by :-) Indeed, scalability is tough but ourbiggest mistake is not to have planned for internationalization fromthe start. Just adding a small library and following a few conventionwould have made all the difference. Today, if we want to translate, wehave a huge refactoring task ahead of us. Not fun :-( Comment by pierreoliviercarleson 26 Jun 09 at 6:50 CESTMy pleasure... You know I love Storytlr :-)

Doyou really need to translate now ? Why not keeping on going improvingthe service and bringing it to a even higher value for the user... andthen consider internationalization later ?!? It would have been betterto think about it at the very beginning... but now, as it's too late,will it make a big difference ?

PS : And by the way, may be you could fix this tiny bug-feature-breakingballs thing ? :-)
http://skitch.com/pcarles/biubu/storytlr-blog-interview-of-eschnou-at-google-i-o Comment by eschnouon 26 Jun 09 at 7:01 CESTHo no we don't and we are not working on it. However, if I had pannedthings right in the begining, today I could just ask my mother totranslate the assets and it would be done.

PHP for example has excellent internationalization frameworks, but you must use them from the start.

Ithink that many US based projects simply don't do this. This is onereason why going international is a pain for them. Refactoring would betoo costly.

PS: Thx for the bug, had actually never seen or heard complains on this. Will fix asap. May 27, 2009

Storytlr Puts Lifestreaming on the Map at Google I/O

Todayand tomorrow we're presenting Storytlr at Google I/O in San Francisco.We thought it would be a good opportunity to announce an exciting newlocation feature.

Lifestreaming services typically offers a reverse chronological viewof all your online activities. Although such a view can be insightful,we at Storytlr believe there are other meaningful ways to showcase yourcontent, besides the story format you are used to by now.

Mainly due to maturing locationtechnology available on today’s high end mobile devices, location isbecoming available as an extra piece of information about your content.We want to leverage this location in two different ways.

First, by offering a map view of stories where all items of a story that have location are plotted on a map (See sample - Please note that this sample only works in Firefox/Safari).

Second, you can display andbrowse the latest items that contain location information in reversechronological order on a special map page (See sample - Please note that this sample only works in Firefox/Safari).

Since location is not yetubiquitous across all sources, you can easily add location to any itemon your site. We think this an exciting and new way to consume content.

In addition to location, Storytlrgoes social and announces integration with Google Friend Connect. WithGoogle Friend Connect it is easy to create a community around yourStorytlr page.

Both the location and the FriendConnect features will be made public in the coming weeks. If you arearound, feel free to drop by our booth at the Google I/O DeveloperSandbox.

We trust you will let us know what you think!

Cheers - Alard & Laurent

Performance improved thanks to a reverse proxy

Aquick post to let you know that as part of the weekly maintenance weran today, we also rolled out a new architecture with a reverse proxy.Nothing to be afraid of, this is just a really cool trick to reduce theload on a server by letting a lightweight server (nginx) deal withstatic content, and only using Apache for the PHP heavy-lifting.

The performance improvement on a per page load is noticeable, butthe major impact in on our average server load. However, this may breakstuff if we serve the wrong files with the wrong server. So, we counton you to tell us if you spot anything weird while using the service in the coming days.

This new step is part of our 'scaling' plan that we started inJanuary when we had our first performances issues. We will continueexecuting on this plan on a 'as needed' basis.

Cheers,

-Laurent

Hi storytellers !

As you may have read a while ago, we have been invited by Google to present Storytlr, in San Francisco, at the Developer Sandbox of Google I/O. This will be on May 27th & 28th.

In addition to that, we'll participate to a very special SFNewTech event, on May 26th, together with five other belgian startups. You can get your ticket here.

We still have some time available for additional meetings in the Bayarea. So, if you would like to meet us and cannot make it to Google I/Oor to SFNewTech, just send us an email and we'll try to setup something.

Looking forward meeting you there,

Cheers,

Introducing the new Irresistible theme by WooThemes

When Mark Krynsky bloggedabout it, we totaly felled for it. So much that it also inspired ournew dashboard page and that Alard immediately started to port it. The Irresistible theme is a free, GPLed, theme by WooThemes, so they were happy for us to go ahead and make it available to you. You can have a look at what it looks like on this demo page. Enjoy !

Update: To have this nice view with activities grouped by categories, you must add a 'Dashboard' page to your site. Simply go to Configure -> Pages to do so. Move the page to the top of the list to make it the default one.

Author: itspanther | Tags: theme Comment by krynskyon 16 Apr 09 at 19:28 CESTGreat job guys. However you may need to provide some instructions ortutuorial on how to modify it to get it to look like the demo page. Iselected the theme but it doesn't provide the content the same way soI'm guessing it needs to be configured properly. Keep up the good work.Comment by eschnouon 16 Apr 09 at 19:53 CESTThanks Mark ! I've updated the post. You need to add a 'Dashboard' pageto have this view. While you are at it, you can also look at ourPicture and Video gallery, I'm sure you'll like it :-) Comment by seioson 24 Apr 09 at 19:39 CESTThat theme is marvellous.

To post a status by email,leave the subject empty and put your status in the body. A moredetailed How-To for email will come...Author: storytlr Comment by pacificiton 23 Apr 09 at 17:57 CESTKinda disappointed by the post by e-mail. Was hoping it would be thesame standard set by Pixelpipe and Shozu for uploading pictures bye-mail... but it's not. Also the BIGGEST part missing from Storytlrright now is to blog by email... or ANYTHING... without having to login. No xml-rpc support.. not even just Subject=Title, Body=Body type ofpost submissions. Really sad. I'm thinking all the excitement aboutbeing invited to the Google conference will totally eclipse any furtherdevelopment in anything for some time. I'll just have to sit and wait.Or look around at other services.... Comment by eschnouon 23 Apr 09 at 18:58 CESTHi Robert,

Postby email works great for most of our users, so you must be experiencingan issue (although I don't see errors in my logs). Maybe due to aJapanase charset or something like that ?

Please send us an email to support at storytlr.com with details of what goes wrong.

Thanks ! Comment by pacificiton 23 Apr 09 at 19:03 CESTHeh. If I used the extended character set I wouldn't be concerned, butI don't. Posting pictures (in the unstandard way) does work. That's notan issue. Straight blogging simply doesn't. I'll pass this on tosupport. Thanks! Comment by eschnouon 23 Apr 09 at 19:08 CESTActually, we normally support extended charset, so that should evenwork. I use french accents in my posts and it works great. I'm lookingforward to your email to we can start helping you.

Worth trying with another email provider as well to have more data points. Thanks for helping us debug this !

Post by email (& more) makes it on time for your Easter weekend !

Hello Storytellers !

Righton time for Easter, we bring you the 9th release of storytlr, and wehope you'll like it as much as we do. New features include post byemail, a much improved bookmarklet, a new 'dashboard' view, plus theusual tweaking and debugging. Details below and, as always, we count onyou to help us test this out. Please ping us by mail or on twitter if you come accross any issue !

Post by email: In the Tools section, you'll find a new tabwhere you can configure your private inbox. Anything you send therewill be posted on your stream. Attachements are supported, so it is nowreally easy to post a picture or some audio from your mobile phone !

Bookmarklet:It is finally possible to directly post video embeds, and these will berecognized as videos and correctly displayed in your video gallery !You can now link to picture or mp3 a file hosted elsewhere.

Per page RSS feeds:The RSS feed associated with a page now correctly reflects the contentof that page. So, the RSS of a picture gallery will contain onlypictures. You can even build your own RSS feeds, for example filteringout status updates. We've also added proper support of audio enclosure,so your RSS can also serve as a Podcast !

Dashboard page:As the name implies, this page presents all your latest activities in adashboard view. This is becoming the default 'Home' page for new users.Check the dashboard of eschnou to see what it looks like.

SEO improvements:Entries permalink are now prettier, we've removed duplicates as much aspossible and added 'nofollow' where necessary. We've also added moremeta information and more microformats. Finally, we now ping blogsearchat google whenever you post an item on your stream (not for imports).We are not SEO experts, so if you have ideas on what we must stillimprove, send us an email !

We wish you a great Easter weekend ! If you travel and make some great stories please let us know !

Cheers,

-Laurent & Alard

How to add a 'Blog' tab or other custom view of your data

Followingour new release, we've received the same request from various users:"how did eschnou add a 'blog' tab showing only his blog entries ?". Itis really easy to do, but not necessarily obvious (something to makeeasier in the next release). Here is how to do it:

Add another page of the type 'lifestream'
Click the 'customize' link
Select the sources (storytlr is one of them) that you want to display
Select the type of data to show (here, blog only)
Pick a nice title
Click save and you are done !

You can also reorganize the order of the tabs. The one on top willalways be the first one displayed when a user visits your page. So yes,you can also get rid of the default lifestream page if you don't likeit.

Figure 1: You can add and customize additional 'lifestream' pages

Release 8: It is all about the Pages !

Hello Storytellers !

Just in time for the spring, we bring you a fresh new release withtwo really exciting new features and various little tweaks and bugfixes. We hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do ! If you want todirectly see the new features in action, have a look at eschnou's page.

We introduce the notion of Pages, available in the Configure->Pagessection. A page is a different view at your data than the standardlifestream. For example a picture page will display all your pictures,accross all sources, in a nice gallery format. You can also add as many'lifestream' page as you like, and select which content to display oneach. This is only the begining, now that the foundation is in place wehave many ideas of new kind of pages leveraging your data in innovativeways !

Tagging is finally there, and unified accross alldata sources. A tag cloud widget is also provided to help you navigateyour data. Note that tags will be imported from now on, so if you wantthem for past data, you'll have to reimport your sources (but this candestroy stories and comments associated with old items).

A new theme is added, and this time it is a contribution from one of our users ! Thanks a lot to stumblepeach for this ! We really appreciate !

Amongst the other tweaks, it is worth pointing out that you can nowedit the title of any widget (yes, you can get rid of the 'my web 2.0life' title if you want :-). We've also added a remember me box, especially useful for all of you using the bookmarklet.

That's it for now. Please send us your feedback, tell us what youthink and if you spot any issue, contact us and we'll try to fix asap !

Thank you all for the fantastic support,

Cheers,

-Laurent & Alard

A word on data portability, backup, reliability, and our upcoming release

Hello everyone,

If you have been following lifestreaming related news, you must haveseen that this week was tough week for lifestreaming services. As MarkKrynsky points out in his post,Swurl has closed, Profilactic is looking for a new home, and Dandelifeis refocusing. Mark also raises the question of data availability aftersuch a service closes and advocates for Data Portability.

We fully agree. You having the control of your data is of majorimportance to us. We will have a developper API, and we will implementData Portability when deemed mature enough. In the meanwhile, youalready have access to our backup function, that lets you download all of your data as csv files.

We also wanted to stress that we have a reliable and tested backup system (based on LVM snapshoting, and mysqldumps, with remote storage). We actually had to use our recovery procedure following our failed update and it worked like a charm ! Yet, as the Ma.gnoliaincident showed, even these can fail. We therefore encourage you tobackup your data using our backup tool on a regular basis. If you wouldlike us to facilitate this process even more, let us know on the feedback forum.

Reliability is also much better since our move to our new server. We have not experienced any downtime or slowdowns lately and don't see any reasons for this to happen in the future either. Slicehost.com is a fantastic solution !

Finally, as you know, storytlr is not a company but just a projectwe are running for fun. This means that we are not under financialpressure due to the crisis. We are actually working hard on our next release, bringing exciting new features such as unified tagging !

We are young, not funded, and we understand that this may scare someof you. We hope that this message answers concerns you may have. If youhave any questions or ideas, do not hesitate to email us and we'llreply as soon as humanly possible !

Thanks all for your ongoing support,

Cheers,

-Laurent & Alard

Courage et merci à vous..! Comment by traeblainon 6 Mar 09 at 16:14 CETAwesome!!! I can't wait until the next release. I'm loving this service. Comment by dalbaechon 10 Mar 09 at 4:31 CETSome of the best projects I've ever seen have started non-funded. Themore a community can help, the better a project and the community canbe. Comment by patriciaon 16 Aug 09 at 7:00 CESTI've tried different lifestream services and Storytlr is by far myfavorite. I even set up custom domain because I plan on keeping mylifestream here. It is unsettling, indeed, to think that a service werely on could simply vanish (I was using Swurl before... - enoughsaid). I like Storytlr better than Swurl, though, so I do hope you guysstick around. :) You're doing a wonderful job! Thanks for this post.

We've moved ! How do you like our new home ?

Hi storytellers !

As you may have noticed, we've suffered from performance andreliability issues in the last weeks. This is normal, we are young andgrowing fast. When we wrote our first line of code, it was to supportour personal pages; today we also do it for a few thousands friends :-)

So, we've been working hard over the last weeks to refactor our codebase, improve our pollers for stability, and add two level of caching.One at the database level, one at the page component level. We may adda third one at the page level with a reverse proxy when required. We'vealso spent some time optimizing our sql requests. You may not feel adifference on an individual page load (generated in less than a secondanyway), but we hope to feel the difference under heavy load !

In addition to this major upgrade of our backend, we've also moved to a new server host. We've picked up http://slicehost.com, a Rackspace company. They provide us with a highly flexible solution,being able to upgrade a slice in a few minutes ! A perfect solution tomanage resources and costs. In addition to that, I must say that I wasreally impressed by their documentation, tutorials and the managementconsole.

No new features in this release, but still a few bug fix and slightUI improvements. We'll resume our work on features and improvements inthe coming days.

As always, we need your help ! If you experience a strange behavior,please notify us at support@storytlr.com ! Even if seems to be anobvious bug, that may not be so straightforward and we may not be awareof it !

Thank you all for your help !

Cheers,

-Laurent & Alard

Author: itspanther Comment by beckaon 7 Feb 09 at 14:19 CETI hope all goes better for the service now. I really do like it. Good luck in your new home. Comment by chrison 7 Feb 09 at 14:42 CETI really enjoy Storytlr, but also I've found FriendFeed which is rathersimilar (without the storytelling angle) in pulling in feeds fromvarious sources together. . .but like twitter it can be from variouspeople. I think the storytelling gives you an edge there but just tosee what others are doing I mention it. Best of luck and wishes, andhopes for more different types of feeds. . .

We'll be moving to our new server today, and roll out the new release. Service will shutdown at 9AM CET for a few hours.Author: storytlr February 4, 2009

You can't be right all the time !

Todaywe tried to push a new release live, our goal was to introduce a newcaching layer and set of SQL optimizations on which we have worked forthe past weeks. Unfortunately, things did not go as planned.

A few minutes after being live again, we started to see strangeeffects on the database, missing records, disapearing stories, andother weird artifacts. It soon became obvious that we had missedsomething in the cache layer and it was not possible to fix thisquickly on the live server. We therefore decided to roll back to thepre-release status.

So, the bad news is that we have to go back to our garage and fixthe caching bit, it will take us some time, which means we won't workon new features for a while. We also need to spend time investigating anew hosting solution to avoid the downtimes such as last week.

As you know, we are just two guys in a garage doing this for fun, sowe appreciate your patience while we learn, and improve our service. Weare commited to sustain our growth, and will solve both the speed andthe availability issues in the coming weeks !

Thanks all for your support,

-Laurent & Alard
