Race Report: Race for Spinal Victory 5k 2013
I ran this last Saturday and didn’t have time to write a post until Monday, but by then it just didn’t feel appropriate. I ran another race today, but I wanted to cover this one first, because it’s a great race! First, the course is terrific — a fast and flat run up and down […]
Font Runner Update
I made some updates to the Font Runner project. First, I cleaned up the project and put it into Git. It had previously been in my Perforce depot, but as I have mentioned before, I prefer git these days. Then, I replaced the old license with the GPL license and removed any references to things […]
EasyRoute 1.1 now available
After about 8 days in review, EasyRoute 1.1 is finally available. The big new feature is the elevation graph. In addition, there were some minor bug fixes and internal cleanup. When I released EasyRoute 1.0, I felt it was in a useful state even without the elevation graph — this is particularly true since I […]
Pray for Boston
I was going to make some announcements with tonight’s post; instead I sit here wiping away tears. Logic is an essential part of computer programming, thus who I am. When these things happen, I ask why? How could this happen? Even to a deranged mind, how could this make sense? I don’t get it. Marathoners? […]

First Races of the Season
I thought I overheard someone say something about it being spring a couple of weeks ago. It sure doesn’t feel like spring with daytime temperatures still down in the 40s, but the spring 5Ks are here anyway. First up, on April 14, 2013 is the Race for Spinal Victory (online registration here). I ran this […]

Happy Birthday Douglas Adams
Today’s Google Doodle honors one of my all-time favorite authors, Douglas Adams. Without him, I don’t think any of us Earthlings could ever fully appreciate a just how incredibly useful a towel is. Mr. Adams, if you’re still plugged into our Internet somehow from whichever other universe you’re in now, thanks.
EasyRoute: For Sale!
It’s finally here! I submitted it last Friday where it stayed “Waiting for review” for 6 days. (4 business days.) It seems to have been “In review” for exactly 25 minutes before changing to “Processing for App Store” and then “Ready for Sale”. I’m hoping others will find it as useful as I have. (Thus, […]
EasyRoute Back in Review
I re-submitted EasyRoute to the App Store. As I mentioned previously, I self-rejected EasyRoute so I could integrate the Google Maps SDK for iOS. This was not just so it could feature a Google map instead of an Apple map — whatever opinions may be about Apple’s maps had nothing to do with the decision. Apple’s […]

Stop the presses!
I self-rejected EasyRoute while it was waiting for review. Why? This happened. I mentioned on the EasyRoute page that I was waiting for something from Google. My API key is what I was waiting for. I had applied for one more than a month ago and now, finally, they are available for everyone. The Google […]
Using TestFlight
When EasyRoute got into the later stages of development, I knew that as the designer and developer, I was the worst person to test it. I wanted to get other people to look at it. Being as this was my first iOS app, I was not familiar with provisioning profiles nor the process involved in […]
