7stacks v1.5 beta 1
For a while, I wasn’t sure I’d get to this point, but, here it is! Version 1.5 beta 1 will be the new foundation for 7stacks, at least for a while. If you see this update, and think “Not much has changed”, then I’m sorry to disappoint, but there’s a reason. Story time: Because Microsoft made some last minute changes to Windows 7, a sizable portion of...
Read More7stacks update :(
I apologize for the lack of updates. I’ve just been busy beating my head against the wall. The development of 7stacks has hit a series of major snags, that will force me to regroup and rethink.

It has so far gotten writeups on LifeHacker, DownloadSquad, and IntoWindows. Both Lifehacker and DownloadSquad are sites that I (and millions of others) read daily. It’s funny how much it’s spread like wildfire. In...
Read MoreComing up for air
I’ve been busy hunkered down in Casa de Alastria, clacking away on the keyboard like a madman. And the fruits of my labor are about to be revealed. I’m about to release 3 apps .. 2 new apps and 1 update. First, the update is to Speedy Shopper 2.0. Circumstances beyond my control have caused me to have a severe delay in the development of this. But Beta 1 has been used by...
