Stikked is my ‘other’ website and this weekend under went some big updates. Stikked is a pastebin, a place for developers to collaboratively solve coding problems. Most often used to paste code in a chat environment where it is considered bad etiquette to paste code directly into the chat, instead you paste it onto a pastebin site, then paste the link into the chat.

This weekend paste replies was added, a long time missing feature. Allowing you to reply to another paste for example to correct a problem in the original paste. Paste downloading was also added, still a little buggy though.

Now, if you know what a pastebin is… You’re saying why yet another pastebin? Well firstly pastebins are in general u-g-l-y with exceptions (http://pastie.org/). So I think I fixed that. Pastebins are also kinda feature lacking, sure it’s a pastebin, but I felt you could do a lot more. So Stikked has a few nice features like snip-url creation, auto-copying the link to your clipboard, remembering settings, etc. The really cool stuff is yet to come.

The final reason I made Stikked is: all open-source pastebins were awful and there was no decent open-source CodeIgniter (CodeIgniter being the framework which powers stikked) application from which others could learn. So Stikked is 100% open-source available from Google Code included with developer documentation to help you understand how everything works and get you started with CodeIgniter. On The Stikked Blog we will also be doing a series of tutorials on how we built stikked.
