So, journalling again and Xcode 4 and iOS 4.3 and iPad app development. Interesting. This is of course prompted by my burgeoning desire to do some iPad game development. I guess the urge really came into effect around New Year’s Eve, at which time I was thoroughly addicted to Game Dev Story. But I wanted… Read more
On the 30th of September, 2007, I started a silly little test project to play with terrain generation and OpenGL.

I love historic figures and statistics, regardless of whether there’s a defined purpose for them. Part of my intrinsic instinct to hoard, I guess. :) I’ve been working slowly but steadily on my Keychain framework again, which has been reminding me – if nothing else – that it’s really important to write good code to… Read more
