Good news everyone!
We revamped the Hoccer WebApp! First of all, we gave the WebApp a complete new design and user interface. We also made some changes on how you use the WebApp. You are now able to select your mobile device or even another WebApp which runs on the same location, so you are able to exchange content between two WebApps. We also added a mobile theme. So you can use Hoccer with people, who haven‘t installed Hoccer on their device yet. The mobile theme also supports Blackberrys. Last but not least, you can reach the WebApp now under hocc.it! It was never easier to exchange data!
We are always open to new suggestions to improve the user experience, so feel free to contact us!
Gute Nachrichten!
Wir haben die Hoccer WebApp komplett überarbeitet! Sie hat nicht nur ein neues Design und User Interface bekommen, sie ist jetzt auch einfacher zu benutzen. Du kannst jetzt Geräte in Deiner Nähe mit der WebApp verbinden, dies kann sogar eine andere WebApp sein. Außerdem haben wir ein Mobile Theme hinzugefügt. Jetzt kannst Du Hoccer Menschen Zeigen, die die App noch nicht auf ihrem Gerät installiert haben. Das Mobile Theme unterstützt außerdem Blackberrys. Du kannst die WebApp unter hocc.it erreichen. Es war nie einfacher Daten auszutauschen.
Wir freuen uns immer über Vorschläge und Anregungen, um Hoccer zu verbessern, und freuen uns deshalb über Dein Feedback.
From today on there is a new release of HoccerWall online. We have built in some new features with which you may already familiar from the latest version of our clients on smartphones. Because we implemented our newest functionality to the javascript-api you may now for example not only restrict your wall to the last sender but all clients in your area.
Feature list:
Coming with those new features there are some changes for the javascript-api as well. We implemented core functionality into the API such as the peek-method, which is designed to show all client grouped with your client. In addition for all our JavaScript-Developers it is now possible to name your WebApp, select clients in your group for restricted send and receive or to just delete your own client instantaneously for a clean closing. You can view those methods and how to use them in our javascript-api-documentation.
See how it works and feel the new usability now…
Ab heute ist die neue Version der HoccerWall online. Damit haben wir den Funktionsumfang der Wall erweitert und bieten nun auch die aus den letzten Versionen der Clients für Smartphones bekannten Funktionen an. Da wir dazu auch unsere JavaScript-Api erweitert haben, ist es nun zum Beispiel möglich den Empfang der Wall nicht nur auf den letzten Sender zu beschränken sondern auf jeden Client in der Umgebung.
Neue Funktionen:
Im Zusammenhang mit diesen neuen Funktionen haben wir auch die JavaScript-Api angepasst. Wir haben die API um die “peek”-methode erweitert, so dass nun auch über JavaScript Clients die Teilnehmer ihrer Gruppe anzeigen lassen können. Zusätzlich ist nun für JavaScript-Entwickler mögliche mit ihren WebApplikationen Namen zu setzen, ausgewählte Clients zu übergeben oder den eigenen Client sauber beim HoccerServer zu löschen. Die neuen und alten Methoden können in unserer JavaScript-Api-Dokumentation nachgelesen werden.
The Hoccer Apps for Android and iOS will now display preview images of content which takes some time to download:

This greatly speeds up the time until you see what has been delivered and hence improves the overall perception. We also added this feature to the Hoccer Wall at http://wall.hoccer.com. Now it’s ultra fast! Try it your self!
Because we wanted to use the Hoccer Wall for our Linccer Tech Talk at Droidcon Berlin, we added a useful Lock-Feature:

If restrict to last thrower is activated, the Wall will only display content which comes from who ever had thrown the latest picture. So if you like to give a presentation and don’t want to be interruped:
We’ve first previewed the upcoming Hoccer Wall at the Always-On Festival in Berlin:
As you can see, the Wall simply displays all images which are thrown at the current location. From now on everyone can use this localized zero-conf presentation tool by browsing to wall.hoccer.com. Because this Web App is such a great demonstration of using our Linccing Service, we published the code at GitHub.

We’ve got great feedback after the Always-On Festival: Radio SWR2 aired a german radio feature and the German TV broadcaster Alex Berlin recorded the whole event (to be aired at 9. March 2011, 20:15).
We have finally released Hoccer 2.0 for Android, iOS and the Web! The look and feel has not changed much but the new Linccer backend improves usability enormously: Handshaking two devices is ultra fast and file up- and download will happen at the same time as can be seen by the progress bars:

Our improved Web App focuses on one-to-one sharing simply with the dragging gesture. If your browser is able to provide location information, then desktop to mobile transfer is a matter of a single click:
