Tonight my USB extension cables came from MonoPrice. I was a little skeptical if they would work or not. If you did not know USB has a 16 foot range. If I wanted to mount a monitor by the tap I had to find a way to get way more than 16 feet away from my Mac Mini. The MonoPrice 33′ active USB cable had really good reviews so I ordered three of them. At a price of $10.20 each it is a steal. These could cost you $50 each at a place like...

Last night Justin came over and we worked on his website for a while. We put a new theme on it and then I showed him how to use some of the back end features. We also tested out the Pint Tracker app. I created a fob for Justin so it was ready when he arrived. I now have Pint Tracker running as an AIR app. It is working out great. I have a shortcut down in my dock so it make it really convenient to start and stop Pint Tracker as...

I ordered and received 10 new FOBbs this week. Planning on having a few friend over in the next few weekends. I needed to get some FOBs ready to be scanned for Pint Tracking. I now need to assign the FOBs to a few select people so they are ready when they come over. Also on Pint Tracker I exported as a Adobe Air App so I am now running that full time now on my media center PC. Here is the latest beer totals. Related Posts:New Pint...

Here are a few screens from Pint Tracker 1.1. I have updated the Beer Leader Boards and the Member’s Leader Board. I like the new screens and this is real data by the way. But I need more people on the leader board. I feel bad burying Terra so bad.

I had a chance really late last night to add some new functionality to Pint Tracker. This is a sneak peak into v1.1 or what I’m calling ITSFMB (I’m Too Sexy for my Beer) version. The “I’m” being the application and not me by the way. The web cam idea was one of the things on the TO DO list. I am happy to say that is workign 100%. When anyone swipes a valid fob the app now snaps a photo. It really makes the app...

Pint Logger is officially live and in production at The House of Husar. Tonight I cleared out the database of all my test users and test data. Now all that is left in the system is me and my wife. Since my wife doesn’t really partake in the joys of a fine pint of ale very often it just might be little big old me racking up the consumption stats. But I am going to make her have a beer when she gets home just so I don’t feel so...
