New Project Up

The previously mentioned teach-myself-to-program-Cocoa-apps app is now available in a more-or-less feature-complete beta version.

The program is called Checkpoint, and is used to calculate scores for a certain style of time-speed-distance road rally. It’s something I had first tried to put together as a pure JavaScript+HTML app à la TiddlyWiki (but without the ability to save), and then as a (buggy) Ruby on Rails app I ran on my laptop. Then I realized that it’s probably one of the few apps that really makes sense to run as a pure desktop application.

Anyway, on the off chance that you think you might find this sort of thing useful, follow the link above. It’s free as in beer and runs on Mac OS X 10.4 and later.
