Hello all you yummy pursuers of that which is noble and true, As I've discussed in a reply to the iOS FDR app thread, I definitely think that we should go the way the progress blows and try to ever-stretch further the white-comfortable wings of philosophy. I'm talking here of a potential audience of 81% * 2 billion = cca. 1.6 billion souls. Sweet mind-blowjobbing stuff, ain't it? Without further other comments, I want to say that I've started working on the Android version of the app. It's not yet public and I can't promise when it will get to that point, but if you're ever interested in giving me a hand with testing and feedback-ing the thing (maybe even programming it if you're up for a after-life challenge), just drop me a message. I will come later with more details. Here's some progress: Portrait Landscape ... and one from the joys of doing this. Live long and prosper :

Hi Everyone, Looking for some general advice here. I made a game to help people improve their grammar, it's free on the Google play store. After a few months of release it now has more than a thousand downloads and a largely positive response. However, I got two emails today from two different people asking me to change the name as it is offensive. The game is called "Grammar Nazi Book Worm" From Urban dictionary: Grammar Nazi:Someone who believes it's their duty to attempt to correct any grammar and/or spelling mistakes they observe. Usually found hanging around Irc chatrooms hounding "n00bs". This is a sample from on of the emails: "Without going into the quality of your app, I suggest that you reconsider its name. I don’t know how old you are, or what kind of education you received, but the term “Nazi” generally has a negative connotation for most people, unless you are a skinhead neo- fascist type. I’m not sure you want your app identified with a system that roasted people wholesale in ovens and that was responsible for the death of millions of innocent men, women, and children." Also, I don't know if I should use the word "Jews" as it might offend someone... Reminds me of that episode of Always Sunny... I am inclined to laugh it off and ignore them (my second favorite role model is Jewish Ms. Ayn Rand), but then again I want to give the market what it wants...

Hi Guys, I'm plugging an app I created in my free time. I'm not a programmer by trade but I have always wanted to do this kind of work full time. The premise is simple, you read your favorite book with grammatical errors mixed in with the goal of correcting them as you go along. After every page you are given a score which compares your answers to the original words in the book. This helps you identify which part of English grammar you are having trouble with and motivates you to work on them. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joanthony.gnbw If anyone wants to copy this for the iPhone please let me know. I hope I didn't make any grammatical errors in this post Also, if anyone can't afford the game but would still like to try it please pm me and I will send it to you for free

I've journaled a number of different ways but I kinda felt like making a quick app for it. Journal: https://github.com/tcrowe/journal Right now it includes only the most basic functionality of journal entries by month. In the future I want to support a few more features like theming and search. This is not a big, fancy, production piece so you'll probably be let down if you expect a lot. I am also seeking peer review and collaboration if anyone wants to jam on it. Requisite Skills ------------------- HTML CSS Bo-staff skills JavaScript Coffee Script It may interest you that there is a JSON data storage module behind this project. The journal was a way for me to do some practical testing on it. splash: https://github.com/tcrowe/splash If you want to talk about it please send me a message via this message board. If you want to post bugs please use the issues page on github.
