Your river in a box!

A picture named tales.gifIf this were something Apple did, Steve would call it "magical." #

Instead, I'm going to say it's rational. And --> It Works™.  #

A new feature in River2 today, the first developed entirely in NYC, makes it easy to set up so that your river is rendered into the Public sub-folder of your Dropbox, for you or anyone else to browse. #

It wasn't my idea, it came from a smart user thinking outside the box. Not too hard to make work and it's fun. #

Here's my public river. It's updated by the copy of River2 running on my MacBook Pro. Nothing fancy, no servers, just an app writing an HTML file into a folder that's managed by the very elegant and useful Dropbox. #

And here's the writeup of the feature.  #

The code was released today. <img src="> #
