This script was featured in another TUAW entry! Thanks [...]

A comment at the bottom of his own lengthy but otherwise interesting article:
One more important point: I’m surprised that some people seem to think I’m implying some programming studliness from my little 3-day excursion. Not so: any first-year college student or intern, or heck, self-taught dude in his basement, could have done exactly what I [...]

2008
I’ve just upgraded this blog to WordPress 2.5 and so far I love it. The only glitch was an easy-to-fix UTF-8 problem but that’s it. Everything’s working.

Update, 2008-03-31: There is a [...]

Incredible. I just came accross this blog called “One Month App”. The guys from Clear Function have been working on Pulse, a web-based application, more or less at the same time as I was working on Parking Friend (from the end of September to mid-October)! Their design is nicer than mine, though :)
