    jQuery Mobile

    I found this awesome little development API called jQuery — it’s made my life a million times easier. One of the components of jQuery is called jQuery Mobile for building mobile websites.

    What an amazing API! I completely rebuilt Numen Mobile in about 3 short days worth of coding. Not only does it look better, but it does way more stuff, and best of all is that it’s compatible with many different devices. I’ve tested it on iPhone, iPad and a couple of different Android devices. Supposedly it also works on many different devices and in many different browsers (see a list of supported platforms).

    Please feel free to check out Numen Mobile, bookmark it, and share it with people who might find it useful. Feedback is always welcome.

  • Numen Mobile

    As usual, the semester is a busy time and I can’t spend a lot of time making visible updates. However, as usual, I’m fixing problems in the background as they arise. Mostly what I fix this time of year are definitions as a result of spending a lot of time using Numen to read Latin.

    That brings me to Numen Mobile, which I updated last night. I have been using it a lot lately for studying Latin, and I wanted to open it up to the rest of the world. If you visit Numen on a mobile device, you should notice a link at the top of the screen asking you to try the new mobile site. It’s been tested to work on iOS and Android. It should work in any web browser reasonably well equipped with Javascript, Cookies, DOM, etc. [e.g., technical mumbo jumbo! read: the lastest and greatest].

    If you have an iOS phone, you should be presented with a link that tells you about turning Numen Mobile into a free app on your phone. Just add it to your home screen (shiny new icon and all!) and you’ll find that version works really well (provided you have a stable internet connection).

    That’s it for now. I’m always plodding away, so if it seems like things are dead around here, they’re not!

  • iPhone Client Bug

    There was a small bug in the iPhone/iPod touch AJAX code that prevented it from working. I’ve fixed that for the time being. Sorry!

    There’s still a lot of work to be done on this site, but the main dictionary features are in place. You can search in Latin and search in English, you can browse Latin words, and coolest of all is the word study tool. The word study tool allows you to type (or copy and paste from any Latin source such as The Latin Library) up to 50,000 words — and see the words parsed, identified and defined.

    Another cool feature, one which is in development, is the flashcards feature. Anytime you see a word you want to study, just check the “I want a flashcard” option. Then, you can print out a list of your flashcards on Avery Business Cards! A planned feature is to be able to study your flashcards online, and keep “sets” of flashcards.

    One feature which is not ready yet — but coming soon — is the paradigm creator. When completed, The Latin Lexicon will create a full paradigm for any word in the dictionary!

    Currently under development is The Latin Lexicon for iPhone/iPod touch. If you have one of these fantastic little devices, give it a try!

    There’s a lot to come, so this application will remain in beta for a while. Even so, I hope you find it useful!
