After many weeks of hard work and careful planning we made a seamless roll out of Ceros 1.9.0.
So what's in the new version I hear you cry...
- Deep linking
- Ability to open a magazine on a specific page or spread.
- New share functionality
- A new toolbar option and API call to allow users to send a link to the current page to a friend.
- Smaller URLs
- URLs for magazine are now shorter in length.
- Support for updated "Publication Open" metric
- Support to record the metric which is compatible with ABCE audits.
- New page loaders
- New page loaders have been added to show percent downloaded.
There is some other stuff, but its for our clients and may bore you ;)
At the moment the only way to test deep linking is by hand, at the time of writing none of the publications have activated the option or added rich media that uses the new call in out API.
So to check it out go here http://dennis.cerosmedia.com/f5b8355af9aeeffeab2d7ef22a5df65e367.cde/page/22
As you can see you just add /page/number onto the end of the URL, and before you ask yes this is an old URL the new ones are much shorter :)
Enjoy

So here it is… finally… I have got the version 2 beta of this blog out! It all started a long time ago when I tried to make my own theme, and became utterly frustrated with the over complicated spaghetti code that riddles wordpress. Don’t get me wrong wordpress is great, a fantastic blogging tool, [...]
I have to say, yesterdays Keynote got me excited, really excited. So I thought rather than spitting and spluttering out excited whimpers of geeky excitement I would sleep on it and post today… well that and I couldn’t be assed.
So what came out of the WWDC 07?
The main focus was Leopard, the iPhone has take [...]
In a rather large step backwards in marketing and buzz word… well, buzzing, Adobe have changed the name of Apollo (their code name) to Adobe Integrated Runtime or AIR.
I guess you could have seen this coming as the .air extension has been used for the install files since day one, although I thought Apollo was [...]
