Thanks for the Pukka update, Justin. I’ve just downloaded and installed it, and will try it out.

Dave Yeah, I think Delicious is having some issues with the daily blog posting right now. See my followup post. - Amy

Amy
I noticed this too. At first I got real excited. Except that lately the daily blog posting is erradict and unreliable.

Is that just me?

Some days the post comes up – others is doesn’t. No rhyme or reason to it.

grrrrrrr…….

If I can get it to work on a regular basis. I’d love it.

Hi Amy. I’m the developer of Pukka, and I’ve released a beta supporting the 1000 character limit which you can grab here:

http://codesorcery.net/2008/08/04/beta-beat-pukka-17

I should have 1.7 final out very soon, after some minor tweaks and testing.

Pukka *is* simple, but it is also very powerful. I’ve focused most on making it easy to use, which has the side effect of making it appear extraordinarily simple, but if you get into it a bit more, it really opens up for the power user as well (keyboard shortcuts, Spotlight, AppleScript, and Growl support, a very fast-updating caching system, and other time-saving features).

As well, feel free to contact me with any ideas or feature requests that you may have!
