Cloud9 offline mode - cloud9-ide

The first two links from a quick google search indicate that it's possible to work on a project via cloud9 while offline.
Is this possible to do, and has anyone had any experience with it? There doesn't seem to be anything mentioned in the docs.
I'm working on a chromebook and was hoping that this could be a possibility.
Thanks.
Note, the two links I found were:

Sadly this is not possible yet. There are new offline APIs being designed and we hope to make use of them in the future.

SIMILE Timeline - hosting on your own server

I was wondering if anyone had any experience with hosting MIT's SIMILE Timeline on their own server. I have been trying to do so for a few days now, following the instructions provided via http://api.simile-widgets.org/timeline/2.3.1/timeline-api.js?bundle=true, but have not had any luck. I have downloaded the zip file which contains the files the instructions tell you to reference. I have searched google to the ends but have not found anything that is helpful.
If anyone has any knowledge of working with the SIMILE Timeline, I would greatly appreciate some advice/direction. Everything I have found seems to be pretty dated.
The best place to ask SIMILE-Widgets questions is here:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/simile-widgets
This documentation worked for me:
http://simile-widgets.org/wiki/Timeline#How-Tos
There are plenty of experienced and helpful users in that group. You will need to be clearer about what you're actually having trouble with. For example, are you getting a blank screen, an error message, etc. Are you able to provide a link to your attempt?

Password protect uninstallation of Firefox Addon using SDK

Background to this problem: Within out company we are working on an add-on to help us do some nifty things. To make it easier to administer we would like to have a password required to at minimum remove the add-on, but probably also to disable it.
I've seen this achieved in for example Public Fox but this is non-sdk style add-on. So my question is if there's an easy way to do this using the SDK? I've looked through the docs but I haven't found anything, probably because I don't know what I'm looking for.
To anticipate the question "why not use that add-on as well?" I think it's enough of a hassle to make sure everyone has one add-on installed, let alone two.
If you want to lock users down, what you're really looking for is a deployment technique where your Firefox deployment installs your extension by default, and to an area of the hard drive that the user does not have write/delete access to. See the Mozilla Wiki for more details on ESR builds and enterprise deployments:

How to implement spotlight like search in Windows?

I need to enable the users to do a livesearch of the contents of a folder from my app. On OS X, I can do it by using the Spotlight APIs which have been exposed. Is there a way in which I can do it on Windows? Does Windows Search SDK help me accomplish this? As far as I know, Windows doesn't index the files until the user explicitly gives permission. So does that mean I've to index the files myself? Are there any open source libraries which do this? How can I go about implementing my own library? Too many questions, I know. I appreciate answers to any of them.
Search SDK is good, but can be switched off by user.
Also try Googel Desktop - do the same thing, but also expects user action on installing it.
Ok. I decided to go with CLucene because I found it more reliable, easier to use and to have a much more active community than Windows Search. And of course I can use it on both Windows and Mac.
Take a look at Xapain. CLucene development seems to have stagnated.

How do I get TiddlySnip to work in Firefox?

Since Google stopped supporting Notebooks, I decided to look for alternatives and so I gave TiddlyWiki + TiddlySnip a shot. However, when trying to install TiddlySnip2.1, I'm getting this error:
"TiddlySnip" will not be installed because it does not provide secure updates
I followed the procedure specified in the site which is to add tiddlysnip.com in the Allowed sites-Add ons list but it still won't work.
And to add insult to injury, the support for the extension has been stopped as well.
My final workaround is to use an older version(1.21-beta), which I was able to find, but I'm finding it a bit unstable.
Did anyone have any success with this?
Thank you.
Eureka! Google has saved me! Their google group has a post on how to shoehorn it into Firefox 3.5.x: http://groups.google.com/group/tiddlysnip/browse_thread/thread/e5edef97dec18a17/ce49452f6397083a?lnk=gst&q=does+not+provide+secure+updates#ce49452f6397083a
Right Stumproot, however I just feel the need to look for alternatives.
OT, I went as far as going into the irc channel of tiddlywiki to find out and it seems that there's no other way around this issue than to use the older version.
I think that the TW community still plans to continue developing TiddlySnip but for now it's on hold so TW users will just have to make do with the beta version.
