Now

This page is about what I am up to right now, not about what I did back in the day. It is inspired by Derek Sivers' /now movement.

What I am working on

  • SevenCounters, a lightweight app for keeping score at a board game we are very fond of at home, Seven Wonders. It is in internal testing: playing real games and writing down everything that grates, which is always more than you expect. If nothing goes wrong it will reach the App Store in September or October.
  • Turning over a couple of app ideas, with a roadmap for the next few months.

What I am learning

  • How publishing apps on the App Store actually works

Away from the screen

  • I like cooking (and eating) and enjoying time off with my family. I try to exercise regularly, swimming at the village pool and getting out on the bike.
