A small single-page info-site I made in a day or two some time ago started picking up traffic and now makes around $500/month from adsense ads. Quite nice for the work put into it, but of course if you take into account all my sites an

Unfortunately, too long has passed and any misconduct in the investigations has been prescribed so noone will be prosecuted or even get a slap on the wrist. Most people involved have already retired as well after building their careers on t

On the other hand, assuming it is true because it's messy would be just as naive.

Thank you for a very thoughtful post. A politically radical prosecutor stepping in to push her own agenda in a case with exceptionally high media coverage sounds much more likely than a conspiracy involving the CIA.

Apparently, the reason anyone in Sweden can't give any guarantee about an extradition is that any such extradition has to be tried in the courts, and the Swedish constitution doesn't grant anyone the power to decide the result without a tri

Another new thing you didn't mention is the new list filter framework for the admin. I've found it really useful in my projects.

Actually, in most cases 4G (LTE) data should use less energy per bit to transfer your data than 3G. This may not be true for some of the early radios released since they are not as mature as 3G chipsets yet. It'll also take some time until

No, for now it doesn't. I may add that later, but since there are other apps (like Anki for example) that already do that I'm not sure if it's needed.

Thanks for the comment! Parse.com looks interesting, but I'm a bit worried about trusting someone else with the whole server side backend. And since I already implemented a backend using Django it's not really needed for now. I'll definitel

Actually I wasn't aware that the order for 田 is different in China, I just used it as an example since I always have trouble remembering it. =) Generally, I find the stroke order hard to self evaluate, since it takes time to check stroke or

I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but you will be quizzed on the included vocab as well. For example, you'll get questions like "two (kanji)" where you answer 二, and questions like "February (n)" where the answer is 二月. Both kinds of ques

Preferably I'd like to not host it myself, considering the amount of work and the problem of letting people know of updates etc. How come you don't want to use the market? Do you have a device without market or is it just a personal prefere

by olofsj 15y ago
That's right. For now it's only for the Japanese versions which in many cases are different, so it's not useful for anyone learning Chinese. I'd like to release a version (or several, both simplified and traditional) for that as well, but r

Don't you think a free version is needed to so you can try it out before buying? It's my impression that most people want to be able to try out the functionality before buying. But limiting the free version some more or adding ads and havin

Weird, I haven't seen that. I'll look into it, thanks for letting me know.

Actually, I started studying Japanese some 10 years ago or so (time sure flies...), and I don't think Skritter was around then. And actually, I didn't find them when I was looking around lately. My app tries to be as close as possible to re

The SRS algorithm is based on SM-2, but I'll probably tweak it to handle the "missed a day" problem as you say. The main reason is the handwriting feature, yes. Maybe it could be implemented on top of Anki, but it seems more work than to wr
28.
by olofsj 15y ago
Yes, I've thought a lot of what to include in the free version and I'm still wondering if it should be changed. As you say, a lot of people quite early, so maybe the free version includes too much. How much do you think should be included?

There is one Japanese learning app that does rather well called Human Japanese. At least it has sold 5000-10000 copies with a current price at $9. It's not spectacular, but for me reaching similar figures would be a success.

Thanks for the great ideas. I'll think about how to add more gamification and some social aspects as well. I think you're on to something with the levels and seeing the path towards the next level. For the moment, I'm at least planning a we
