arvind Posted July 14, 2004 Posted July 14, 2004 MT/Typepad users must be familiar with Typelists. Typelists are basically a fancy way of replicating what many plugins do. Typelists would allow you to eg. create a reading list by just entering the ISBN number of a book and having all its details displayed from Amazon, or a link list where all the user needs to do is enter the URI and everything else is displayed. Well, I'm very ambitious and armed with my very little knowledge of perl and apis, I'm thinking of setting out to create and plugin for Movable Type that will model this ! I have posted on my blog about this subject http://blog.arvind-satya.com/archives/2004/07/typelists.php and believe me I understand the immensity of the project. However I need as many ideas as possible - ideas on how I could tackle this, what it would contain etc. ! Thanks !! Quote
