Cloud Share - New App

2014 May 23, 4:06

I've put a new app on the Windows Store: Cloud Share. It connects the web to your Windows 8 share charm.

I did the development on GitHub and quite enjoyed myself. I wasn't sure I liked the game-ification of development in GitHub's dashboard showing you your longest development streak in days. However I realized that it encourages me to do work on my personal project and anything that aids in holding my attention on and helping me finish these projects is a good thing.

Sci-fi short stories disguised as Internet docs

The recent short story Twitter API returning results that do not respect arrow of time by Tim May written as a Twitter bug report reminded me of a few other short sci-fi stories written in the style of some sort of Internet document:

comp.basalisk FAQ by David Langford written as a FAQ.
Wikihistory by Desmond Warzel presented as a forum thread.
The Riddle of the Universe and Its Solution by Christopher Cherian written as a scientific report.
