It was fun to take and actually had some questions that were beyond which “there/their/they’re” and which “to/two/too” to use. (:

Thanks IconFactory!

(I jacked some of this entry from Seth Dillingham so if you read this and then go read his post and they sound familiar, that’s why.)

I’ve gotten a lot of joy from the IconFactory over the years so when they released Twitterrific I was pleased. It was free and it was good. Thanks guys!

Well they revved this free software a few times and when it came up to 3.0 they made a SMALL change-once an hour there’s an ad, and if you don’t like the ads you can get a “registered” version for fifteen bucks that doesn’t show them to you. I was on the fence and didn’t mind the ads so I didn’t pay for the software.

Until today. Some idiot unhappy person, however, posted a hack that strips out the ads. People who use this hack are stealing money from the Icon Factory: they didn’t pay for the software, and they’re not seeing the ads.

In response, I just registered my copy. They now have my $15.

The idiot gentleman who posted the hack is defending himself, as if he didn’t do anything wrong. Here’s how we (all Twitterific users, especially software developers) should respond: Register your copy of Twitterific for $15

Post a note on the idiot’s site to let him know that, to prove him wrong, you’ve just registered your copy (here’s mine).

Post something on your own weblog. Either point here, or reproduce something like these instructions.

Let’s see if we can drum up at least a few hundred registrations for them, to show our support. Turn the idiot’s bad behavior into something good for the Icon Factory.

hi!

home. not dead. It was touch and go for awhile there.

We (the Scoot and I) just got back from a week in Florida at DINNEYWORL! We were there part of the time the Ambassador was there so we got to see him and Jane…his wife and that was super fun. I might well have been more excited about them than I was about Expedition Everest or whatever. Anyway!

We had a good time. We spend a day in Epcot with Thunderball and Myrtle, Wife Of Thunderball. We had conspired against The Scoot to give him a new name every time we were in a new “country” in the world showcase. Then we referred to him using said name as much as possible. I will post the list later but rest assured that calling him “Scootje” in Norwegia was ONLY the beginning. (Did I mention there was an accompanying nametag for each of these as well?) Yeah. Surprisingly he totally went along too so we had a LOT of fun with that.

Right now I’m tired as all hell because in my brain (which never totally switches off PST) it was 2am when I got up this morning and I had to fight that teeny little logic center (which isn’t used much, have you met me?) which kept going “SRSLY IT IS TWO IN THE FRACKING MORNING! GO TO BED! Wait, why are you getting dressed? WTF?” (etc)

So if you see me between now and Christmas, you are lucky. If you see me in January, I’m sorry, and if you don’t see me in February, avenge me.

I fell asleep twice just writing this. Now bed. MY bed with MY alarm and MY tv stations. Dear lord how I’ve missed MY things!
