Welcome to the Jyte Fan wiki!
We thought it would be a very good idea to have a wiki for the Jyte community to share some of the code, mods, tweaks, etc that they are writing with the world.
Lately there's been a bunch of scripts and other cool ideas pushed forward and it's finally time that we had a place to bring them all together. Anybody can (and should) edit this page.
What is Jyte?
Jyte is a simple service that allows you to associate claims, credibility and contacts to build a reputation with your OpenID.

Scripts and libraries
Greasemonkey Scripts
- ClaimInfo by Ryan Grove - Displays Jyte claim descriptions in a tooltip when mousing over a claim.
- JyteKeys by Ryan Grove - Adds hotkeys for common operations on Jyte.
- Jyte Comment Helper by Bruce Stockwell - Gives you a little HTML toolbar above the comment textarea.
Hacks
Desktop apps
- We need some of these!!
- The Shrubbery runs from desktop and you have the source, so it's a start :)
Communities
Feature Requests, Bugs and Ideas
- What should we add to Jyte? You can make a claim or just post something here!!:
- Automatically verify claims via MicroID to claimID (See this claim)
- Ability to ignore claims from specific users
- instant comment preview (via AJAX?)
- display which users are most likely to agree with you, and which are most likely to disagree.
- Firefox extension - Something that flashes (or provides some other indication) when someone comments on your claim or gives you cred - A make a quick claim button on the Firefox toolbar to submit a claim without going to Jyte - A cred counter that shows your cred (or your friends' cred) in real time. - A scrolling update across the bottom of the browser for new claims or claims made by your contacts or claims made within certain categories (user configurable, of course) - other ideas?
- JavaScript (instead of iframe) embeds
- Have claims that only certain groups can vote on
- Small widget with 'highest claims' for the day
- Wider screen layout?
- View claims by: most interest, your interests, group/contacts/tagged contacts/etc.
- View claims by tag: recent, most activity
- Ability to complete remove your vote?
- External widget of all of my claims?
- Recent claims I've voted on
- Edit claims & comments for up to 2 minutes (or until someone has voted on them)
- Remove your vote completely?
- Ability to +/- comments from users
- Include support for micro-formats - hCard, XFN, FOAF
- A "badge" like RapLeaf has to show cred stats externally
- RDF-in-XHTML support using GRDDL (XSL transforms) to generate RDF
- A jyte browser plugin could allow the creation of claims from highlighted text anywhere on the web, including seo packages and meta-data on the source: For instance, if I'm reading a Fox News transcript and am too lazy to research the claim an anchor or guest makes, I could just highlight it, click my jyte button, and wait for the votes. This would require the attribution attribute, and maybe some protections against wholesale spam (like only established users, min. cred, etc). It's like embedding a claim, except the claimant doesn't know it.
- Allow "group-only" claims that can only be voted on by people in a specific group
- Allow "invite-only" claims that leverage the 'group-only' claim component but make the results private
- Add an 'iffy' answer
- Make the "make a claim" tool more easily understandable ... examples of latest claims?
- Logical and set operators to connect claims
- Make Jyte Spy! link more prominent?
- More hooks into the profile (via popups?) so people are encouraged to update their profiles
- Allow OpenID's to be tags?
- Users should be able to set a claim visibility threshold based on the number of votes in the first n hours, where n is another option.
- A clear statement on the 'Make a Claim' page indicating that 'I' is understood to mean 'the voter' in claims would help new Jyte users.
- Bury this claim option
- Option to state that you do not wish to vote on a claim.
- When I publish an 'unfinished claim', it appears in the claim list at the time I created it, not the time I published it.
- Cred API should have widgets and openID lookups
- Claims referring to OpenIDs as opposed to other URLs should be visually distinct.
- A user-editable tagging system could preserve the original claimant's intent by showing deleted tags in strikethru font, and using some subtle visual cue to indicate non-claimant authorship of new tags.
- Vote, view profiles, etc from within Jyte Spy?
- Display more than 10 claims per page
- Nav menu should consist of text links, not images.
- Jyte should have a "Convince Me" claim
- People should be able to delete claims if nobody else has voted yet.
- Claims made by groups (i.e. voted on in a group before being claimed globally) might be useful if the global claimspace gets too cluttered.
- okcupid.com should incorporate Jyte data into its matching algorithm
- Groups should be merged with Tags, or somehow be promoted through claims
- warn you when you try to create a claim with no tags
- Vote tallies should be filterable based on the voters' cred, interests, and groups.
- Votes casted by highly credible users should count more
- Private, group-only claims
- The Home page should show "claims you've commented on that have received new comments"
- Comment threading - partly to improve discussion, but more importantly to make finding replies easier.
