Straight off the Autobahn... another preview
I've been working away with Austin and Brian on our new project and we're prepared to show off a bit more of it. This week we're heading down to meet up with some of our German developer friends, including The Coding Monkeys, the The Xylescope Guys, and Boinx Software. So while we've been working away in the back seat of a fast going car on the way to Southern Germany, I've put together a nice little preview of our progress seen above.

Hi Jasper!
Germanys colors are in the wrong order: black on top, followed up by red and the last color is golden. (See http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlag_van_Duitsland)
Just in case this particular order wasn't intended... ;-)- At 10:34 AM, said.
Hahah well wow, that was just lame. Thanks for the tip ;)

I'd like to take a guess at this new app.
I'd guess it's your answer to Apple's Software Update. The word Disco (and the recent addition of a feature to appzapper) makes me think this relys heavily on Sparkle to keep track of and update various software.

Oh, and it is "Engineered", not "Engineerd"
OK OK, I go away :)- At 4:52 AM, said.

I agree Anonymous. I think it is definately a software updater.

I think it's save to say it's not a software updater! But there are lot of progress indicators in this app.

hum... is it some sort of download accelerator? That would use a lot of progress indicators.

"I think it's save to say.."
Hmmmm, typo or hint?- At 9:02 PM, said.
download manager type thingy? or bit-torrent-type client?

if your name is "jasper" why is the title "japser's blog?"
- At 9:47 PM, said.
Hopefully your programming is better than your typing.

Wow... get off the spelling bandwagon people. Its a blog for crying out loud. The guy makes GREAT stuff, his design style is quite good, and needed, and his blog probably is written quickly in those small break times he gets between coding on projects. Give the guy a break! If he's allowed to make spelling errors, I'd rather him make them here than in his code, so, geez!
And Jasper, keep it up man! Good stuff!- At 10:16 PM, said.
The name of my weblog has always been "Japser", the fact that you wonder about why it's like that is why I chose it. It sticks, and it's a mistake easily made in both speech and written text.
As far as my spelling in concerned, English is not my mother language, and as long as you understand what I'm trying to say I'm not really worried.- At 6:50 AM, said.
It's funny to see how people admire your work but can't appreciate the liteness of your english.

Personally I think it'll be a little backup system!
Wait and see...

Hehe, I thought japser's blog was hilarious until you had to go and explain it all to us :P
First I heard of this thing I thought it was so stupid that people were buying it without knowing what it does, but then after reading all the stories I decided to buy it too ;)
