Music Ngram Viewer
Posting mostly for siderea, who would never see the G+ post:
Peachnote Music Search » Music Ngram Viewer and Search Engine
From Research at Google's G+ feed:
The Music Ngram Viewer, inspired by the Google Books Ngram Viewer (http://books.google.com/ngrams), lets you see how melodies and chord progressions have waxed and waned in sheet music over the ( Read more... ) -
Highlighter pens for Emacs
I already mentioned this in siderea's post where she gave me the idea, but:
I've written an extension for Emacs that lets you highlight stretches of text, like with a highlighter pen. It should work in any major mode. Three colors of highlighter; saves and loads when you save and load the file; switch colors with meta-+; highlight the current region ( Read more... ) -
Bugfix update to Fanorona
This morning I posted a bugfix update to Fanorona. When an Android app crashes, the user has the option of reporting the crash to the developer; it turned out Fanorona would sometimes crash if you touched the screen outside the board.

Fanorona going ad-supported
This morning I published an ad-supported version of Fanorona. I don't know yet how many people are downloading it (the Market's stats update only once per day), but so far AdMob says they've gotten 462 requests for ads. (Only 82 of them have been filled, though, which means I've earned only a penny. But hey.) -
Buzzphrase
Last night I published my second Android app, called Buzzphrase. It's a random mission statement generator-trying to be a high-quality mission statement generator, with a wider variety of output than most you see. I built it around a grammar engine; that is, it knows a bunch of grammatical structures and how to glue them together and plug in ( Read more... )
