I’ve been very busy last weeks preparing my exams so this blog has been a little bit “unattended”. Last Friday I released a new version of our Moodle Social Bookmarking Activity and I hadn’t time to say it to anybody, neither to my boss. (Hello, Marc!! I’m at my office. Where are you? On holidays??? )
As you know, download if available here.
Fixed bugs and other issues:
- Activity description allows a larger text.
- I fixed some issues at activity logging.
- Moodle API for managing tags changed and I adapted my code (but I forgot about deleting tags…. solved)
- I removed the weird “ssds” from page titles… No comments.
- Something else??? I can’t remember… We clearly need a tracker!!

I have released version 2008052901 of this Moodle module.
You can download it at Morfeo. Remember that this module is compatible with Moodle 1.9 and not with its older versions.
Fixed bugs:
- Not saving some data at activity instance update
New features:
- New activity description box over the navigation tabs
Enjoy it! I’ll be working to improve it. Thanks for your bug reports and suggestions.

Today I spent few minutes fixing some bugs of our social bookmarking module for Moodle.
I packed all code in a zip file that you can download from Morfeo.
I seize the opportunity to explain one trick about this module. You can enable link preview using websnapr. I included some javascripts in our package that you can configure in a minute.
You only need to get a developer key from websnapr web site and insert it into /mod/bookmarks/preview/previewbubble.js.
var developerKey = 'your developer key';
Our activity looks cool with this script. Thank you guys from websnapr for let us using it, you are doing a great work.

I’m glad to announce that I have just published a new Moodle activity.
This time I shelved NWiki project few weeks to design and to develop this new activity.
Most of you will know del.icio.us and I’m sure that some of you are using this service. So installing this module in your Moodle, you would be able to create mini-delicious activities inside your courses to do some kind of WebQuest.
The main idea is that students search information about a topic using the World Wide Web and share whatever they find with their partners. Using this tool, links can be tagged and organized easily.
Currently our module is fully implemented and works fine, I have no reported bugs to solve. But there are some pending task to do: implement course backup/restore and add some evaluation method.
Backups will be implemented as soon as I have a couple of hours and grading tool must be designed. I suppose that a drop-down menu used to chose a scale value would be great (like in standard Moodle’s forum). I would take into account any suggestion.
Here is a link to the download page. Enjoy it.
