An Alertbear Mini-Review
I subscribe to Google Alerts for the word Alertbear, and it just found me this. It’s a very thorough review of the original Alertbear release, the RSS reader that I designed. It really is quite a gushing piece, which makes me feel great. It’s only a shame that the project died a death.
And that a didn’t get rich from it.

So, you’ve written it off then? I was wondering if the whole project was dead considering nothing new had been released in years. Too bad. I still use it at home daily, and love it. I gave up on it on Vista, since it seemed to hang/lock up constantly. I should really try it again. Vista has been gradually getting better the last 6 months or so.

Well I lost my programmer, since Deathwish went off to do other things. That kinda killed right then and there. There’s the option of releasing it open-source or something, but trying to get momentum on that kind of thing to actually get updates done to it is almost impossible. So for now, yea, it’s dead.

Sorry it had to die. But a maths degree is a full-time thing in term, and outside of term I’m either still doing maths, dead in a corner, or if it’s summer, doing money work instead. Shame, I know, but the code was crappy anyway.
