Qr Code Maker with Google Chart API

Notice: We have moved our online QrCode generator to Online Qr Lab


You have noticed that I didn't posted those days as well; yet my activity will stop, because I'll soon begin my studies.

Later, I was busy on doing researches about the Qr-Code. Why did Google (Chart API) choose QRCode and QRCode Only!
This search started with Google insights! which gaves me the following results


The Qrcode is in Blue and EAN is in Red!
Yet the QRcode demand is increasing floantly which means it become more used.
So I should make more interest on QRCode for my barcoding software?

Yet I already created a Qrcode Maker based on the Google API. You can try it online.

MakeChart for Google Chart API

The last time I talked about Google Chart API. I said Google Charting is very good, ok not so good, but worth a look.
What you may find bad on Google Chart API

• Images aren't glassy!
• No animation
• no tool tip text (when you move your mouse)

Yes that's true, but I have talked also, that I'm going to create an application for Google Chart API. And you know that I'm the man that opens 3 or 4 project every day and all my project are %20 finished.... but don't care!

I made a website nicknamed Make Chart, which will use Google Chart API to create AJAX widgets that makes Charts and also APIs for developers.. and what's that?
I think by making an Ajax widget, every one can include it in his site! Cool, no?
I already finished the Pie Chart widget (%20 :p)
The Pie Chart widget is built with Ajax and so it can be used on every sites with Javascript included.

Here's the first point. Let's move to the next

What if there's animation on Google Chart API? Ok, the simplest idea, is to call from image to image, changing slightly the values, every time I get a picture, it's like doing a film.

Ok, but if I get the picture on 1.6 seconds, so how this animation will be? Ohh, don't retire =) we still have a solution: doing a stream

Yes, downloading all the images on memory with JavaScript then relating between them.

Something crazy....

Planing for APS Launcher

Every project must have a plan, especially when its' Open Source and more than one developer are coding on that project.

So there is a 'APS Launcher' Open Source Project, there's also a plan. I divided the project into 3 big parts:

1. Design and interface
   The interface and the design of the project that will interact with the project classes. I decided to take care of this part myself.
2. Running command line instance
   Running the command line and capturing the output is the biggest and hardest part ever, I will just control the work in this part, especially about the threading. I prefer that this part is done by 2 programmers.
3. XML Data base
   For storing the data, we'll use an XML File. A class will take care of the different command to add and remove elements from the file. This will be coded by only one developer.
4. Publishing and advertising
   I'm going to publish it into a website and host it on my server, as I have enough space and bandwidth (I think so, unless App Engine Windows users are a few millions). For advertising we'll use services like Google Code.

Time to see the project live:
I bet we can complete the project before august, so it'll be ready by 1 September.

Google App Engine Launcher for Windows

It was a long discussion here. But I got new ideas from the nice folks on the Google Group. Ok, now I dream big for the APS program, (I stick to call it APS, I like the name, I dono why, did you like it also?). Never mind about the title, ohh but respect the following

• It's a launcher and not a server
• Don't use the word 'google'
• that's all!!!

The thing that I didn't know Google already made a launcher but for MAC. So here's the screen shoot
MAC users can download and use it here.

What do you think of it? Ok, I'm just thinking of cloning it to Windows. Sounds cool? Ok, I already started the interface, but don't have MAC launcher images, does any body have?

Google APS :: Google App Engine Server

Yes, it's not complete, but I need some further help as I'm more busy those days. So, some help will be appreciated from other Dot Net programmers.

I have made a website for Google Aps. You can check it, it's two page. You can also download the source code.

The application is written with Visual Basic Dot Net 2008 Express Edition (it's free to download and use).

Download the source and try to improve the current application, then send your version to omar.abid2006@gmail.com

Discuss ideas and suggestion on the forums.
