The new Apple TV and it’s App Store has launched and my binary clock is there on day 0. C10CK is now a universal purchase on iOS and tvOS platforms; this makes it available on iPhone, iPad and now Apple TV. It looks pretty nice as a wall clock on a big TV. I think […]

Fusion Tables is neat. Google describes it as ‘an experimental data visualization web application to gather, visualize, and share larger data tables’. Last year I tried out their API which was mostly based on sending SQL statements to create and manipulate tables. Recently, I looked at Fusion Tables again as part of an imminent upgrade […]

git outta here…
I’m switching my Source Control Management software to git. Performance has been great, I’m learning to branch and merge with wild abandon and philosophically it’s right on (what with the distributed model and all).
