Peter is a married man, single ladies everywhere shed a tear


So once again I will start an entry with an apology for not having put any new information up here in a long time. I must also apologize for taking so long with the next version of The Unread which is in the works and nearing completion. Lots of people have written in reporting bugs (mostly the same ones) and I haven't written them back because I've been so busy the last few months. I usually try to respond to all my emails in a timely manner so to all those people who haven't heard from me, I'm sorry.

I hope everyone will forgive me and understand. The main reason I've been so busy is because I got married about a month ago and went on my honeymoon! I took a ton of pictures (my wife got me an awesome new digital camera -- a Sony DSC-F717 -- for the wedding. I got her an iPod Mini) and I have put some of the better ones up on my .Mac site if anyone is interested in taking a gander. Here's one of my favorites:



So now that the wedding and honeymoon are both over, things are calming down a bit and I've been working on The Unread. I am completely overhauling the stuff behind the scenes, especially the preference handling. There is a bug in the current version that causes it to "forget" your preferences sometimes. For some people it happens rarely and for others it happens almost every time it is started. That's bad. It will be fixed in the next version. I'm also adding some new features so you can look forward to that if you are a user of The Unread. I hope to have it finished in a week or two because...

I'M GOING TO WWDC!

That's right! I've always wanted to attend Apple's World Wide Developer Conference but I never had the money. This year, I applied for a student scholarship to the conference and I got one! All I have to do is get myself to San Francisco, the scholarship covers the conference pass (which are expensive). It starts on June 28th and runs through the 2nd of July. It should be a lot of fun and I should learn a lot of stuff, too. I'll report back here when I return or perhaps even while I'm there.
