Mercurial TextMate Bundle

We are switching to Mercurial as our new SCM system at Hot or Not and no SCM switch is complete with the appropriate TextMate bundle. Luckily there was already a TextMate bundle available from the Macromates SVN repository (I know, ironic!). The bundle, however, was missing a few features in the commit dialog which I have now added and making publicly available through the forked Hg repository on bitbucket:

hg clone http://bitbucket.org/mazdak/textmate-mercurial-bundle/

Hot or Not Facebook App

Great news! (and it’s about time ...) We’ve totally redesigned the HOT or NOT Facebook App.

Nor more lame graphics. No more uncertainty as to what to do and how to do it. We have made it super easy and clear how to rate people, get rated and meet hotties on Facebook. Plus, you can search for people locally too.

So, check it out now And, don’t forget to invite your friends to join you in all the fun.

Enjoy. Have fun.

Hot News!

Hello friends,

I am happy to say that as of last week, I have accepted a position as the Engineering lead at Hot or Not. This is a really exciting opportunity to work on an iconic (albeit a bit eccentric) brand with millions of users.

What makes this even more exciting is that as of last night, we launched our brand new iPhone app on the Apple (iTunes) App Store. If you have an iPod Touch or an iPhone, feel free to grab a copy.

Thanks,
Mazdak

p.s. Don't ask me to hook you up with free accounts ;)

iPhone app

Our new Hot or Not app is now on the iTunes App Store. Fire up your iPod Touch and iPhones.

Launched Wiggle Eyes

It's been a busy 2-3 months, but I am happy to have launched a brand new product: Wiggle Eyes. Wiggle Eyes aims to be *the* online destination for crafters. If you have a minute, give it a try. Better yet, if you know a hard-core crafter, let them know! You can subscribe to the Wiggle Eyes Blog for up-to-date info.
