I am looking for Google Apps integration for Basecamp & Highrise. Is there anything out there that will integrate:
Google Contacts <-> Highrise Contacts
Google Docs <-> Writeboards
Google Docs <-> Files
Google Tasks <-> TO-DO's
Google Mail <-> Messages
Google Calendar <-> Calendar
I've seen...

...but nothing appears to be out there for the whole shebang.

With cloudHQ service, you can manage all your work documents in a single interface and keep files synched between Basecamp, Google Docs, Dropbox and SugarSync.
No need to download and attach files – just edit and save files directly on cloudHQ and keep your assets all in one place.
All your Basecamp project attachments can be in Google Docs so you can share them and collaborate on them directly from a Google Docs interface.

Good ol' integration. Always a pain.
Perhaps look into something that consolidates more of what you need into one system, and bypass the integration entirely. WORKetc integrates CRM, project management, collaboration tools, and billing into one system - and it integrates with Gmail among other google apps. Managing all operations through one system is much more efficient and saves a lot as well.

Highrise doesn't integrate with Google Docs, in the sense that, say, Wrike or Insightly do, by letting you attach a Google Doc to a task, project or contact. And 3rd party integrations like Zapier don't do the trick either.

I and my friend want to create a website. We're using Vs code. How we can work on the same code in vs code? I'm looking for something that lets me edit on the code at any time I want and the same thing for him.
Use GitHub
GitHub is a development platform inspired by the way you work. From open source to business, you can host and review code, manage projects, and build software alongside 50 million developers.
Github is a web-based platform used for version control. Git simplifies the process of working with other people and makes it easy to collaborate on projects. Team members can work on files and easily merge their changes.
You should definitely make your account on github as a developer as it helps alot.
Check it out here: https://github.com
You can use https://github.com/. Once you are done doing your code you have to upload it on github. Same as your friend can do. And the important thing is you can see/undo your previous code if you do anything wrong.
This is an opinionated question and answer, but since you are using VsCode, I would recommend Microsoft's Live Share . Since Microsoft is the creator of VsCode, I would guess this is going to be your best option to stay within the editor.
Visual Studio Live Share enables you to collaboratively edit and debug with others in real time, regardless what programming languages you're using or app types you're building. It allows you to instantly (and securely) share your current project, and then as needed, share debugging sessions, terminal instances, localhost web apps, voice calls, and more! Developers that join your sessions receive all of their editor context from your environment (e.g. language services, debugging), which ensures they can start productively collaborating immediately, without needing to clone any repos or install any SDKs.
Additionally, unlike traditional pair programming, Visual Studio Live Share allows developers to work together, while retaining their personal editor preferences (e.g. theme, keybindings), as well as having their own cursor. This allows you to seamlessly transition between following one another, and being able to explore ideas/tasks on your own. In practice, this ability to work together and independently provides a collaboration experience that is potentially more natural for many common use cases.
Well, I would recommend GitHub, is a great tool. If you like to learn from video, I would recommend this video. Or read this article.
The best way is live share
Live Share is an extension for VS Code that enables real-time collaboration between developers. It gives users the ability to share a session with someone else, allowing them to edit code as well as share a sever and debugging session

I have designed a website for my brother's company using Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.
How can I create a content management system (CMS) for him to let him easy to edit or post news in his website? I think that using Dreamweaver will be difficult for him.
Any CMS is going to require server-side scripting. Typically one starts with a CMS framework, and then designs the theme around it. There is no easy way to "CMSify" your Dreamweaver design. I suggest you take a look at the Wordpress framework, which will require a PHP backend. Here is a link to a tutorial on creating custom Wordpress themes.
It's not an easy task if you don't have any experience with scripting, but depending of the complexity of the website there are some good options. What I mean is, depending on how much dynamic the site will be. Put yourself some questions like:
Is the website mostly static, and only some text areas and images have to be updated? Or are there more dynamic parts that involve the creation of new pages, like a blog or a "products" page? Do you need a friendly backend, or would your brother be ok with updating text in text files? Will it be only your brother updating the content, of he will need to manage several users?
The degree of difficulty for you will be proportional to the degree of friendliness of updating to your brother/users.
Depending on the answers to those questions you can use something has:
as a file based CMS without interface (Kirby) or with (Monstra,
razorCMS)
A very simple to convert but also very basic CMS (Surreal, Cushy,
Perch)
A full blown CMS that will take longer to learn, but give
all the flexibility to do whatever you want (there
are many choices, but Processwire is my absolute favourite)
Rather than creating a CMS, try installing an existing one that will import your static pages and perform the main steps of making them work in the new system. It's not that hard to do from scratch, but many web hosts will have some of these systems pre-installed. You can find out what CMSs your web host offers, and then Google "[name of CMS] import html".
The MODX CMS (modx.com) has some decent tools for importing HTML into the system. Detailed instructions here.
WordPress has various plugins you can install to do the same thing, including HTML Import 2. Detailed instructions here.
WordPress works best for people who like a simpler interface. MODX works best for people who like design control, and also for people who plan on doing a lot of their own code to extend the system.

Which is better for mobile analytic Localytics or GoogleAnalytics? [closed]

I wanna use mobile analytics inside my iPhone app, i have read about both they are similar to each other but some persons say that Localytics is better and others say the GoogleAnalytics is better, advice is highly appreciated.
I am currently using Localytics inside my app , it is good analytics but it has disadvantage compared to google analytics which is you can track limited events per user and if you tried to register more than that number they will remove all your events attributes, so that i will remove my localytis account and start using google analytics because it does not use such limiting , because of the importance of the events and there attributes i will leave localytics and go google analytics , All other analytics things the same
The biggest difference between Localytics and Google Analytics is that Localytics is designed for apps, not websites. Localytics collects a richer data set by default and allows you to create any number of events with any number of attributes (GA limits you to just one). SDKs are available for all leading platforms, are very lightweight and provided in source code.
Localytics has both free and paid versions. The free version, called Community, does have some limits on event occurrences, collecting personal data and data cardinality, but very few customers hit those limits. And unlike Google, Localytics doesn't sample your app usage. Additionally, Localytics Enterprise customers have access to session-level data for integration with other systems.
Much more info is available on our website, including technical docs (http://localytics.com/docs). If you don't find what you need there or you have more questions, please ping me and I would be happy to help.
Just for anyone reading this as of 2015 - Google Analytics allows up to 50 custom dimensions with your events and each event contains three hierarchical fields by default, plus a value field. Google analytics doesn't "Sample App Usage", unless you hit extraordinarily high limits, but does have reporting limits, beyond which the reports will be based on a sample of the data collected. With Google Analytics Premium you can get the unsampled data also. GA also supports tracking users between a website and native apps using a unique member token.

Say I am required to build an E-Commerce website that could eventually become very very large. The site would start with at least 100,000 different products, and would include features like Amazon. Would you advise me to use a CMS? or to build this website from ground up?
Something to take into consideration is that if I use a CMS, there would still need to be lots of custom coding, since we want many features not commonly available.
Taking into consideration factors such as Speed, Security and Scalability.
Features would include: Different sets of details for different products, product comparisons, reviews, customer management, customer points system, and all the basic ecommerce features.
If you say CMS, Can you also suggest CMS's that would be great for this kind of store.
Thank you.
Well you have to consider many things. in general means, using CMS is good idea.It reduce development time as well as development cost. But you may need to make modifications on source code in order to gain what exactly you want from it. On the other hand build such application from scratch allows you to obtain exactly what you want. but its will takes time as well as much cost.
follow through bellow link
http://www.mykeblack.com/web-design/how-much-does-an-ecom-website-cost
and also if you choose an FOSS CMS find something has higher community involvement as well as support.
If you use paypal as payment method , check their web site. they suggest couple of good commercial CMS.
The ideal e-commerce solution for that volume would be Magento
The only downfall is that its very robust and has a steep learning curve. I do NOT recommend using a framework that is a blogging site first, with an e-commerce plugin or add-on such as WordPress. It will not be able to support the traffic, the product volume, or the security precautions that should be taken.
Obviously is better if you use a CMS, I recommend you OpenCart if you just want to do an E-Commerce web site, it's is so simple and Open Source.
For something bigger you can try Joomla as CMS and a great extension called VirtueMart (http://virtuemart.net)[3], it's very complete an extensible..
Any time you use pre-made code, you are at the mercy of the features included. Adding features can be significantly harder than with custom code.
That having been said, it is definitely not unheard of to START your site with pre-made code (or even a whole platform - like selling via Amazon) and only the included features so you can start making revenue while you write your own solution.

A client of ours is a membership organization and they are looking for functionality that seems closely aligned with Google Sites capabilities.
They want a system where their members can have a content managed site of their own that one or more admins can create by submitting a simple form.
The member organization could then add/remove pages, add/edit/remove content, add their own users, modify their color scheme and layout.
They would like the ability to have a url structure like, "member_org_url_to_be_named/member_name" - but it could also be subdomains (i.e. "member_name.member_org_url_to_be_named").
So they need a security hierarchy to be able to have different levels of users:
Admin - can add/edit/remove sites, users, etc.
Member Admin - can add/edit content within their site, add users that are also able to add/edit content within their site.
Member user - can add/edit content within their site.
From what I've seen and read, Google Sites seems to be able to handle this functionality. It's a little difficult to get in touch with someone there who would be able to tell me this definitively, however. So I'm wondering if there are any other platforms that might be able to handle this workflow.
Obviously, I'd love to hear from anyone who has implemented a system like this before. I'd also love to hear from anyone who has actually used Google Sites.
(Disclaimer: I work for Google. I don't know much about Sites though.)
Have you actually tried to use Google Sites for this? It strikes me that it shouldn't take very long to give it a whirl. If you have any Sites-specific questions, the Google Sites help centre and user forum are probably good starting places.
This sounds like content management with roles. Drupal fits this purpose pretty much perfectly.
http://drupal.org/
I've used Google Sites (the free "standard edition") a very little bit, it was easy to setup + easy to reconfigure my DNS records via nearlyfreespeech.net to setup CNAME and MX records to a domain I own.
The mailing list stuff works nicely. The site editing is very easy for anyone to use but a bit slllllooooowwww and somewhat clumsy, and doesn't appear to "play nicely" with the concept of uploading/downloading via FTP/SFTP/etc. I don't like the idea of my group's users spending all this time developing a website, that I can't backup or transfer to someone other than Google if I run into an issue.
I don't know if these issues are addressed in the pay version of Google Sites. For the moment I'm definitely keeping the email-mailing-list features going, but looking around elsewhere for something similar that works better.
(If you find something please post!)
