PulpFiction just won the runner-up Apple Design Award for "Best Mac OS X Technology Adoption." Details to follow tomorrow. Also rumors about Travolta and "squoze" jokes to follow, undoubtedly.

Brad and Scott are at WWDC, and developers are encouraged to check out the WWDC Weblog run by Cocoa Dev Central at http://cocoadevcentral.com/wwdc2004/. We encourage you to stop Brad or Scott to say hi. Brad was a big help on PulpFiction and is responsible for much of the speed boosts seen in 1.0.1 (as are […]

Many people IMed me shortly after Safari RSS was announced. "What about PulpFiction?" or "Guess this means the end of PulpFiction?" The answer is rather simple: this is a good thing for PulpFiction. Safari RSS* will get people interested in syndication. Those users will graduate to a higher level and look for a more advanced […]

Geek Patrol has published an interview with, well, me at geekpatrol.ca. I said a lot in that interview, so I've not much to say here and now. 🙂

I've previously hinted that PulpFiction 1.0.1 would be available soon. In our efforts to massively improve the speed, fix some bugs, and add some nifty features, we've hit a few snags - things that take a little longer than we imagined - and are so bound by our perfectionism that we can't officially release 1.0.1 […]

If you're interested in being an affiliate of Freshly Squeezed Software, please IM me (and introduce yourself). Affiliates can offer our products for sale on their site and get a cut (5-10%) of the sale. Currently I've set up Booklet, iWipe, iChem, and Rock Star as being available for affiliates. I'll add our other products […]

If you wish to get a sneak peek at what we're finishing up for release by Friday (tentatively), you can download this file: http://freshlysqueezedsoftware.com/downloads/PF101b1.zip I've posted the changelog in the extended entry. Two things of imporance: Back up your database file. Submit any remaining bugs via email (erik @ the domain above) or via IM […]

From the Cocoa-Dev mailing list. Can you help? I'm writing an app that uses NSURLConnection for getting some files (using the delegate callbacks), and sometimes, that connection just sits there and does nothing, even though the timeout should have killed it a while ago (the server is working properly). I tried to create a workaround […]

Giles Turnbull says some nice things about PulpFiction in a little ditty calledRSS: The Next Generation: At $25*, this is a good-value application that offers many new features for RSS. Treating feeds like email makes a lot of sense, especially for newcomers to the concept. Giles talks about how he doesn't save articles very frequently, […]

Today I implemented a download survey on FSS. While a user waits for their download, they can answer three or four questions. Users who completely fill out the survey get a one-time coupon for 20% off an order of $15 or more - a way to say thank you and, to be completely honest, to […]

Two quick announcements today. First, Freshly Squeezed Software now has an RSS feed. I'm editing it by hand for now because I'm unaware of a straight old RSS-creation app. Subscribe to it and stay up to date with FSS news. Second, FTPeel 1.1.4 is now available. A free upgrade of course, version 1.1.4 fixes a […]

Are you good with Cocoa, Networking, and AppleScript? We may have a position available for you within FSS. Details to follow, but those who are interested may IM ("iacas") or email (IM if you could eh?). We may be looking for about 20-40 hours/month, primarily of development time but occasionally answering support emails about one […]

I've got a task for which I need a salesperson. It's a one-time thing with some small potential to go much longer, and there's potential to make a good amount of money. Interested parties should IM me at "iacas." It's a pretty lazy Saturday, so I'll be around most of the afternoon.

At one point, we decided that it'd be cool if PulpFiction allowed users to customize the preview pane with CSS. We shoved every article into a template and created unique DIVs for everything. A few simple stylesheets were produced and we were quite pleased. Some time later, we decided that it would be even cooler […]

Brad, one of FSS's gifted developers I'm happy to call a team member, has been banned from accessing Slashdot. Brad is working on PulpFiction and Slashdot is one of our default feeds. Andy, another FSS team member, was banned late last year for three or four days. Why was Brad banned? Did he post bad […]
