Friends on wheels

Just because I like plots, I recently made one showing the daily stats of my two friends Anne and Carsten, who are cycling around in Europe and South America these and the following 40something weeks …

Braid

Yet another game from the Humble Bundle that I recently finished. Braid is a really nice platform or jump-and-run game with quite a twist in it. To solve the various and diversified puzzles you have to manipulate time. By going back and forth in time; while, depending on the level, either you or part of scene do not follow; you have to find parts of an actual puzzle to grasp the story of the game.

Really nice and certainly something new for me … http://www.braid-game.com/

And of course it’s available for Windows, MacOS and Linux.

SplitBill

It’s been some time since the laste update of SplitBill, but now it’s time for major one!
The new SplitBill version features (amongst other things):

  • short URLs to access your SplitBill
  • weights applied to certain people
  • exclusion of weighting for specific items
  • individual contributions to specific items
  • individual deposits for each person

Also, and probably most important, SplitBill has a new web location:

http://splitbill.mehlhase.info

Please try it and let me know if you have any problems …
