Tense Code 3.0: a new look and iPhone support

This entry is part of a series showing off the new features in Tense Code 3.0. Tense Code is a content management system that makes creating and updating web sites much easier. Tense Code 3.0 is in the middle of an extensive private beta test, and I hope to make a public beta version available later this month. This is a huge update and I’m really excited about it, so I thought I’d start posting about some of the new features. I’m pretty proud of this software—if you’re updating your site… Read more »

Smart Widget Installer beta

If you use Delivery Status, the screen above probably looks familiar. I’m taking the installer out of Delivery Status and splitting it off into its own app. Why?

It’s hard not to waste time on the internet. While I’m working during the day I tend to spend my idle time reading news feeds and posting on message boards.

It’s become such a habit that it’s difficult to stay away, and once I get sucked in, a good chunk of my day blows by pretty fast. So I’ve come up with a way to block those time-wasting sites during my work day. This trick is somewhat advanced, but if you… Read more »

Leopard + Delivery Status users, please note…

Delivery Status 4.0 has just been released. Older versions will not automatically notify you of this or any other future updates because of a bug in the version checking. Please make sure to download this update manually, and let your friends know! Sorry for the troubles. This update is one of the biggest in a while, and I put a lot of work into it. Aside from fixing a lot of services you may have had problems with, I’ve added a lot of new features to make it nicer to use. Adding your own… Read more »
