I created a simple search for The New York Times crossword puzzle.

http://donohoe.io/projects/crossword/

It ranges form Dec 31st 2011 back to Oct 1996. Its nothing special (I don't actually love or do crosswords) but when you search for some terms (mostly as Answers) it provides fascinating Questions.

Took a month off in March to relax and do some traveling. Two weeks in and I can't take any more doing nothing, this popped out: http://www.getonthegame.com.au

It's a price comparison website for Australian video games. Still early days yet, but it's been a fun distraction and an opportunity to learn some new tech/tools in the process.

New redesign of BCC, complete with obligatory A/B test. Scroll way to the bottom and click the link if you can't see it. (Might need to click twice.) http://www.bingocardcreator.com

The underlined menu links sure are weird. I suppose they mysteriously bring in more money.

AutisticTouch.com for the Lehigh Valley Hackathon (hack.lehighvalleytech.org) where my team and I took 1st place overall and tied for crowd favorite.

Hi Jason, You should setup a rewrite rule for the autistictouch.com

Oh, there are so many things that need finishing (not to mentions starting). That starts today. I guess technically we launched this yesterday, as yesterday was demo day, but we built most of it in March.

I'm not entirely sure that BCC's new redesign is rendering correctly. From the computer image it looks like your blue top area should be further down. Then in Firefox the effect is even more extreme.

I like the design, but I feel as though BCC lost some of its "uniqueness." The design looks like a lot of other designs these days. Then again, your customers probably don't know or care, and it's just us who read about BCC.

That's really cool! UNIX was an answer eight times, but Linux didn't come up at all.
