After my "Pluggable mobile device detection" presentation during Liferay Europe Symposium a lot of people asked about the mobile device emulator I was using. The truth is, it's not a real "emulator" but a simple combination of html page and a Firefox user script. However, it does the trick and for most people seems to be good enough (at least for a start). So, I made a promise to share it and finally found the time to blog about it.

Yep, good guess, a Java API to bluga.net webthumb in now available. Making your Java application display website thumbnails is now something really easy to implement. Get your API KEY form bluga.net webthumb, download JWebThumb and start requesting and fetching thumbnails with just a few lines of code.   

• custom size thumbnails
• support for both JPG an PNG
• web services or REST based API
• either creates thumbnail instantly or sends notification when done
• free version 

A friend of mine recently asked me about merging survey results, which reminded me I had similar problem about an year ago and have written a peace of code to solve it. It's not a framework or user friendly application and it's not well documented. It was written in a couple of hours to solve particular problem, but in case anyone is interested here is  so called SpreadSurvey.
