Everybody talks about Google, Microsoft, Apple, Angry Birds, Twitter, Facebook, and a handful of other software companies and applications, but they are not representative of the majority of software companies or authors. And the amount of money they make isn’t representative either. Few developers ever make the gobs of money that you see in TV… Continue reading Why Developers Need to Squeeze Software for Ca$h

Menus are for Restaurants, Not Software
Ok, that’s a bit of a bold and overstated title, but it’s basically true. Menus hide things. They make things harder to find and harder to use. They make software more difficult for people to use. I’d like to outline some basic principles, and then talk about how they relate to Super Simple. Now, for… Continue reading Menus are for Restaurants, Not Software

Dead Kennedys Concert Pictures
I saw the Dead Kennedys last night, and they rocked! Fantastic show. Holiday in Cambodia was off-the-hook crazy amazing! The crowd went completely bat-shit! Ray Fluoride on bass there drove it with that dark, dark build in, then DH on drums and East Bay Ray on guitar brought it to a screaming climax! A wicked… Continue reading Dead Kennedys Concert Pictures
Turbo-Charging Robosoft with DynamicPAD (Part 4)
Well, this is the final part in how you can turn Robosoft from an 800 lb gorilla, to an 8,000 tonne fire-breathing, city-eating, raging godzilla razor-beast from hell!

BLOWN AWAY by a Download Site – Softoxi.com!
It is RARE for a download site to impress me. Very rare. But Softoxi.com has literally just blown me away! I’m quite frankly shocked with disbelief! Their screenshot page for Photo Resizer INCLUDES A VIDEO SHOWING INSTALLATION AND HOW TO USE PHOTO RESIZER! I received an email from Rainer Weiss, the editor at Softoxi, at… Continue reading BLOWN AWAY by a Download Site – Softoxi.com!
Initial Robosoft and DynamicPAD Sumbission Results
Well, I’ve spent the better part of 2 individual days doing submissions with some final submissions on the morning of a 3rd day. So, that’s the time investment. Now, Photo Resizer ranked absolute zero prior to the submissions, so anything that’s in the search engines now is purely because of the submissions that I’ve just… Continue reading Initial Robosoft and DynamicPAD Sumbission Results
