There's always one more bug :) And enhancement! What you ship is when a) when you get bored, and b) when people stop complaining (sadly, a) always comes before b) :D)

Anyway, another brilliant product from the Envérité laboratory! What next, I wonder? Transvestite hampsters doing a little dance? (which reminded me of this, but I then saw this which I think Becky might like, 'cos she's into Anime :D)

Damn that's what happens when you try to fix a minor bug just before going out to dinner...

Should be fixed properly now!

Becky, the Sewdoocow game is brilliant, and once again people are talking about techy I.T stuff that goes way above my little head!!!

I've no idea how you made it??? Basically if it doesn't involve sticky tape & cardboard I'm buggered...

just realised it's sudoku not "soduku".

Actually I think it's sorta both. Also in the Daily Telegraph its Sudoku (one word) and in the Times its Su Doku (two words). As its converted from Japanese I guess there's a few alternative spellings...

Hmm, yeah I'm thinking about putting some google ads on it and mentioning it in a few sudoku forums. :)

Fantastic!

All you need now is a tranny flickr dressup soduku to really get the traffic coming in...

Do'h... just realised it's sudoku not "soduku". I've edited the filename and code accordingly. It's weird, I find it really hard to see the difference when reading the word.

"Basically it will use whatever flickr can create as a XML feed"

There's only so much you can do using XML feeds. Guess who just got herself an API key...

"But you know what would be cooler?"

And anyway, I wasn't working on coolness, I was working on grooviness. It's a separate dimension of meritoriousness. ;-)

Aw bless. I kept her locked up in a room while she worked on the last project. This is classic Stockholm Syndrome.

I feel worthless now :(

I feel worthless now :(

Thanks Karol, I really enjoyed hamster soduku too!...

2005-08-11T13:01:00.000+01:00

Thanks Karol, I really enjoyed hamster soduku too! I actually used the hamsters while play-testing, something quite satisfying about it! :D

Shi-vawn:

"Pulling photos straight from whoever's photostream"
That's work in progress. ;)

"based on tags"
Er, it does that already? :-S

"or dates"
Basically it will use whatever flickr can create as a XML feed. I suppose it could scrape pages off flickr directly, but a) I'd have to we-write it and b) it feels like cheating. ;-)

"Count To Ten group"
That would be cool! I'll see if I can jig the code.

"and drag-n-drop"
Moon on a stick! :)

Oh, and I ought to have given you some credit for giving me the impetous to do it when I saw your calendr, although the raw idea had been knocking around in my head for a while. :-)

2005-08-11T11:56:00.000+01:00

Glorious :-D

But you know what would be cooler? Pulling photos straight from whoever's photostream, or based on tags, or dates, or even from the Count To Ten group. And drag-n-drop. And the moon on a stick.

Becky, you have completely eclipsed all your previous work!

Hamster flickr soduku? I'm been laughing so much, I seriously thought I was going to wet myself. Absolutely brilliant, girl you're a genius! Or totally mad, or errmm both!

Superb!
