Its even worse.. with Windows 8 looking to be really quite a
mess.. join the Walled Garden of MS, or be left aside and destitude over
time! OSX with Apples walled garden (though not enforced - yet - on
desktop), and the plethora of Android and iOS devices .. steep competition
across all platforms, with many good apps, and many crummy ones.. but
spread over many similar niches, overlapping niches.. penetrating that
tangle, to find the right people .. very hard :)
I'm not up to it right now, we'll see what the futrue holds.. I've
got an iOS/Android app in the cooker now (a game), we'll see how far it
gets (its a huge project, this one) but its using some frameworks and I'm
builkding some infrastrucuture that could be used for a future Shadow. But
we'll see, one step at a time. I don't have the spare cycles like I used
to ... 3 kids more than in the Shadow prime days :)
It is still amazing, after all these years, you're all still here
... we really did somethign back then :)
