My interactive search engine for short available domains: http://www.nxdom.com/ I'm working to bring the advanced weighted sort order back, but optional so that new users can play with the simple sort order until they understand what it does. Work in progress is here, and full source code: http://master.latest.scoretool.appspot.com/ http://github.com/jcrocholl/nxdom My 2-year-old son doesn't want to go to sleep yet,…

Putting the finishing touches on the app I wrote this week, a co-founder finder. I also got a Droid this afternoon, so I've been having a hard time avoiding the distracting shiny, shiny new toy.

cool - I bought the domain 'FounderStar.com' with the intention of building a site like this. but at the moment I'm too busy with other sites. If you're interested in the domain let me know - either way, I'd be happy to give input or try out anything you deploy...

Working on my word-learning application. Partly to learn Dutch (though the program can be reused for any pair of languages, with some features (irregular verb forms) making it more suitable for Germanic languages - Dutch, English, German etc), partly to get experience with C#.

Finishing touches on porting my chinese checkers game to Android. It is mostly an exercise in writing a HTML 5 app for Android, as I don't expect many people to be interested in chinese checkers. Then, start working on the next Android app.

Working on a quickie startup using a domain name I've had since '03 which is foreverlist.com. It's a paid classified ads site where, for $5, you can list an ad with unlimited images that never expires and which you can change to anything at any time.

So, as an example, you have a classic car which just sits in your garage collecting dust. You're somewhat interested in selling it, but only for the right price, and definitely don't want to fuss with relisting the ad every 30 or 60 days like ebay, craigslist or kijiji. So, one day you sell the car and then want to sell your snowblower. Just change the listing.

Cheaper than ebay's fees by far, less hassle than CL or kijiji. The $5 keeps out the spammers and scammers. Yeah, I know, it's extremely saturated but like I said, it's a quickie.

My project: a "Foursquare meets Mafia Wars" game. You claim a real location, name it and defend it. Generate virtual currency over time and spend it on weapons. The code is complete and the family will be running some tests this weekend. Next, we will invite a few friends, get some feedback and figure out the next steps.

Interesting. I had a flash of real violence breaking out over the game.
