Off To San Diego
Just getting everything together to go to O’Reilly’s Emerging Technology Conference. San Diego bound tomorrow at 5.30 am from the house. There’s an obscene amount of mobile phone tech coming with me to demo OPL on 3 (4?) platforms and over various devices. Plus the massive OPL giveaways of Vexed, SameGame and FuleLog (via Martin Dehler). Should be fun, but nervous as anything with the distance and time away from Vikki and Eilidh… Oh, and a big thank you to Ron and Marijke. I think it’ll be a big hit.
Same Game Updated to v1.10
THose of you watching my other sites will have spotted that I’ve updated my Series 60 puzzler “Same Game.” The main update is we now have an OPL Menu in place, and I’ve added in a choice so you can select 3, 4 or 5 colours of ball. 4 gives a nice gentle game, and 3 is a great quick battle. BUt I still personally prefer having the challenge of clearing 5 colours. Only managed it about 4 times in general play. Next up is an evil addition to Vexed… time to add support for all the level packs so

Rikki Fulton Dies
Rikki Fulton Dies. Can’t say any more on the subject, I suspect most of Scotland is waking up and realising we’ve lost a legend.
Contracturally Obligated Laugh at Orkut
He-heh. Eveyone gets to work on Monday morning, finds out htey’ve been asked to join Orkut, they join, and the server falls over. Plus all the holes, mass mailing bugs, and the fact that nobody in the UK can post images to the gallery because of copyright reasons… well… Orkut is down ‘for maintenance.’ Warned you we did, but nobody listened.
