What? Nothing! does nothing... just nothing!


Are you just like me and sometimes just want to do nothing, nothing at all?

Well, that brought me to this revolutionary plugin for Joomla! All these plugins that are available do all sorts of stuff. All busy doing their thing. Adding functionality here. Manipulating html output there. Making your website better and better.

Well, that's all good and nice, but it's so much activity!
That's where this plugin comes in...

What it does? Absolutely nothing!

PS: Check out the What? Nothing! system plugin settings. You might want to tweak them to fit your needs.

That's one of the strangest and funniest modules that i've ever used! What can i say? Keep up the good work ?

The Thing



Posted on 27 June 2013
Fastest and lightest extension ever.

The least useful extension from NoNumber...

OR?...

There is an hidden feature somewhere...

The video says it all.

Nothing
After reading the instructions and downloading, there's a large gap of time that I can't account for. Highly recommended!
Owner's reply: Hmm, yet another report of this extension deleting time. If you experience any loss in space too, let me know and I'll see if I can fix it.

The Best of the Best



Posted on 29 April 2013
Here I am, cruising JED looking for that great extension for my project like a junkie looking for her next fix. I will never get a better fix than I did with What? Nothing! and my website never looked better. Considering purchasing the pro version. Thanks!
Owner's reply: That's why junkies are more positive people than developers. A developer look for a bug. A junkie looks for a fix.
This product could stand some enhancments. I would like to see some statistics/reports around the success of doing nothing. Of course that may change the whole concept of the extension. But my clients always ask for an ROI. I would like to show my clients the benefit of doing nothing. Nothing better than useless statistics for this purpose. As it stands right now I have to pull these statistics out of the air. And the cost of this extension, free, makes it even tougher to quantify the ROI. Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Owner's reply: I don't see a direct need for statistics at the moment. I have experimented with stats, but they all seem to return empty.
I would advise you to just make your clients try out the extension themselves. Experience speaks louder than statistics.
No, I haven't set 5 stars to his extension !



Let me explain why...It's supposed to do nothing...but it's relative.



When someone asks you 'What are you doing?', you sometimes reply 'Nothing' but you really do something. You reply this because you feel guilty or you think what you do is useless or has no impact...



So 'nothing' is really relative to a context, a person.



In this case, the owner of this extension has chosen to implement his nothing, what he thinks nothing is...



He chose a nothing in our place, so we have nothing to do.



I'm ready to subscribe to the pro version but only if we can choose which nothing this extension will do : either by some parameters or by an override.



Wouldn't it be good if we could implement our own empty php code or select 'Nothing 1', 'Nothing 2', 'A huge nothing' ?



Please, respect the users of this extension! Let us be free of our choice, of our nothing!



A user who had almost nothing to do for 10 mins...
Owner's reply: Have you even looked at the settings?
There are all sorts of settings to define how (and how many times) you want it to do nothing.
And even more in the Pro version.

I hope you'll reconsider your rating...

This is the spirit

I laught so much with all the nonsense comments and also this magnificent extension that does nothing, but I can see its been made with alot of passion,sense of humor and imagination, just like all of your extensions. Thanks Peter for all the contribution you have made to the community. Excellent kharma.
Owner's reply: Thanks. You laughed: mission accomplished!

NOT EXACTLY NOTHNG!



Posted on 10 February 2013
Seriously, by the time I realised this very techy app did not actually do anything, it was too late. It was already doing something. Like making me laugh and my son - and that‘s something - and cutting into my web development time. So now as it seems I cannot get it to do what it is supposed to do – nothing, in fairness I need to get a refund. Trouble is I got the free version one so what to do about the refund. What? Nothng?
Owner's reply: I am so sorry about this. I have my team of Leprechauns working as hard as possible on this issue. I think you will find that you won't be laughing at all when the next version is released. If so, I will refund your free version in full.
Overall pretty good, I did have an issue however when part of a CSS file began leaking olive oil from the featured page on my website. A customer complained it clogged up his keyboard pretty badly. I tracked it down to What? Nothing! So, after a quick phone call to the company (thanks for that Kate, and for the other thing too :)) I was quickly sent a beta copy of 9.1.1 which stopped the leak. This was the only issue which stopped me giving this extension the full 5 stars, otherwise it's perfect!
Owner's reply: Thanks for the review. Indeed, the 9.1.1 version (still in development at this time) should solve most to all emergencies.

This is not nothing!

This extension really should change it's name to something.



Because I figured out it's now become a great detective analysing tool in something. Like for inexperienced users without the tendency of particular cognitive experiences to provoke laughter and provide amusement. And some other things too.



Besides this, the extension gets people confused, which is good and something that should not be underestimated.



A hard lesson in live to invest time in something and realise it lead to nothing. But to call that realisation nothing? How can it be nothing when it's definitely something?



Thanks to NoNumber for nothing but excellent! something!



P.S. I would really like to win something with this excellent! review (like a life time subscription to what! something? ).
Owner's reply: Ah, but nothing isn't in no way not the opposite of the absence of not something. I don't get the feeling you don't misunderstand that (or anything not at all the same as this) at all, isn't that incorrect? No? Yes? I didn't think so!

I can reward your review with nothing, but only this time.
