Orgiastic Boogaloo, Take Two

Wow: three big announcements. First, I released iRooster 2.1 Beta 2 last Friday. You can download it right now from http://www.sixdollarchimp.com/irooster.php. This release is pretty stable. I need to make a few adjustments to how it interacts wi...

iRooster 2.1: The “Orgiastic Boogaloo” Alarm Clock

I was about to write a somber and fairly normal post announcing that I had just released iRooster 2.1 Beta 1, and that you should go download it right now, because it kicks ass… But I need to change that all around now. Instead, I want to announc...

Infinite Streams

I’ve been thinking a lot about infinite streams lately. I haven’t spent any time whatsoever on this concept since I was a freshman in college taking Structure of Computer Programs 1, aka Scheme 101, aka the badass Comp Sci weeder course from hell....

Daily Update on iRooster

I didn’t work on iRooster at all today, but I spent 30 minutes on the Update Manager I have planned. I’ve decided that it’ll be easier than trying to email all of my registered users every time a new major update comes out, and far more polite too...

iRooster 2.0.1

I have almost finished iRooster 2.0.1. As the name implies, it’s just a couple bug fixes. However, I have tossed in one extra thing. Now, if and when iRooster crashes, you will be able to send crash report information to me instead of Apple. I don...

iRooster 2.0 Released!!!

I am very happy to announce that I have finally released iRooster 2.0, the best damned alarm clock for Mac OS X. I am extremely excited to finally make this broadly available. I feel like it’s taken me practically forever to get this out the door,...

More iRooster Updates

I am ready to sign off on iRooster 1.2 Beta 1. I’ve done a lot of work to firm it up, make it as usable as possible, and add cool new features to it. I implemented a feature in an hour last night that allows users to check for updates and see if t...
