Another release from the folks that keep bringing you .tel goodies...

Announcing Glittel.com!

Tired of that plain grey proxy page?

Glittel is glitter for your .tel domain!!!

http://www.glittel.com

Glittel.com gives you a better looking alternative for linking to your .tel to your webpage.
There are many styles to choose from and many more on the way.

Feedback is welcome and if you have any suggestions for styles, let me know and I will work them in.

Complete customization and other awesome features are in the works.

Enjoy

that's a great advantage.. it points to the inclusion of .tel info on other devices, or framed in other sites and such as being very flexible.
good job.. it's what people need to be seeing to understand that .tel represents more of a tech. and a platform vs. a different sort of 'website'
bravo.

Neat!! It works well!

Can you add more styles? And perhaps a preview of each all at once?

i think it would be very cool to, instead of reworking the look of the content, create a widget to post .tel on blogs: one for wordpress, one for joomla, etc.

That way, the links would be where the site owner wanted them, versus the standard contact page.

I have a little feed widget that actually updates the tweets... it fits in the sidebar beautifully. A sidebar widget for .tel info would be so great!

Also, thinking in that way, you could almost unhub from the .tel widget to the body frame.. creating the 'presence' most people think .tel lacks.

In other words use the .tel link as a sort of menu on the framed set.. target the body.

that's really the whole point.. most people have a 'time' realizing that this is friggin data. how it's viewed depends on where they view it.

There's already a widget for wordpress. It's been available for a couple of months.
For those of you who code in PHP, look at its code, it can help a lot.
Find the widget on google, i'm on my phone right now and don't have the url.

Hi everydody!

Nice thing, but if it is glitteled - my phrase "you`d like" displays like "you’d like".

Cheers,
Paul

Nice touch, everybody will be happy with the default .tel colors - because they can glittel their .tels as they wish to.
Are you planning on a custom skin submission utilitiy?
Can you also please add UTF-8 support? Russian keywords don't display correctly on my nadya.tel when glitteled.

Hi All,

Thank you for the postivie feedback and excellent comments.

In the "pipe":

- More styles
- Style previews
- Better International support and localization

After those:

- More styles
- Complete style control

I really like the style submission idea but will be putting priority on complete style control for now and then set that up later.

More news to follow.

Just a thought on customer skin submissions: you could have a simple constructor in frames and highlighting each element will give you drop-downs and color pallettes to choose from. This way, you limit your users in the template you have, don't have to parse custom styling info in customer-submitted styles, and give a nice personal touch. Create your own .tel skin/glitter!

Nice concept, Freaky.
Just tried it with my phone and it works too!
i know, i know - it's for web... i just was checking it's look.

my 2c, it's a handy little feature.
i'm sure adding themes which display well on MOBILES by default, will make only good for .tel

... It can be implemented within software, same as how themes are used in mobile phone world.
I don't have iphone, so i can't test any iphone app which may already have this theme thing built in.
