I wanted to write a blogpost about MageHack 2012 London (magehack.com) but somehow failed until now. I’ll be brief as it was long ago and the memory is fading fast. There was a pub warm-up event on the Friday before the event, with beers and schnitzel (a guy grabbed the last one just before me),…

Moved domain finally
by Sam •
So here I am, finish multi-branding all say. I’m now on wizguild.com, migrating everything here. First of all, my projects on the main site (mostly done, more coming) and my support sites for iOS apps. Although I have no time and intention to blog regularly I’ve migrated my old stuff here for the posterity.

TextWrangler PHPTidy filter
by Sam •
I love TextWrangler. Performance of TextWrangler is just incredible compared to the alternatives. Just try to open a few hundred megabytes long XML and do a search and replace. Others will give you the spinning beach-ball for minutes. Its only real weakness is long lines. I miss few key features, though. I’m not a big…

Updated iRecipeBook finally
by Sam •
It took terribly long to fix the built-in web server. Thank you for your support by using the App and sorry for annoyances. The focus is on social networking features now.

I’m still waiting Apple’s approval of my request to join their developer community. It’s not straightforward, because I cannot buy anything from Apple Store. I live on the wrong side of the world. I had to fax them papers to prove I will buy the subscription, now they are sitting on this paper and…
