Due to lack of public interest and to make room for other projects, I decided to stop active development on Flavordex and Word64. The apps will still receive bug fixes and my other project, Elementary, will still continue. These products never took off. They don’t have the number of users to justify the time and […]
I made a game and it is called Word64. It is a word game where the goal is to spell words by connecting letter tiles on a 8×8 grid. You have 3 minutes to make as many words as you can. Here is a picture: Check out word64.com if you are interested. Right now the game is […]

The most significant change is the ability to post reviews online and share them on various social networks. You can see these reviews at flavordex.com. I think this feature makes […]
Over the past several months I have been working on a project called Flavordex, which I released Friday. Flavordex is an Android app for beer (and soon wine, whiskey, coffee, tea, and more) tasting.
