When will you skip iOS, Cocoa, and the like...and come to the SIMILAR darkside of the Android OS and start developing apps? By similar I mean that iOS (& OS X) has very close ties with the Unix-like Android OS. Lets be honest, AWK does fall in line with POSIX, GNU, and BASH (along with my favorite term for a character - "BANG") I have dabbled, with ALL the free time I have of course, in developing a couple of unreleased apps. However, seeing that you are now rolling them out left and right for iOS, I'd hope you would consider humoring us who do not have an iPhone and making 1/10 the effort for 'Droid phones. ;-) Seriously, great stuff!! A tool that is honestly helpful when one needs to stay on the run and figure out what their future plans are, QUICKLY!

I kept my mouth shut with WhenIsEaster, but now I just have to say it: you are a big ol' nerd. But in the best possible way, of course. And while you're on a roll, you might consider a companion app to WhenIsEaster: WhenIsAshWednesday, since that holiday, too, moves around. Though it moves in direct parallel to Easter, so I suppose one could always use the WhenIsEaster app, and then count back 40 days plus Sundays to get to Ash Wednesday...but that seems like a lot of work. :) Ok.
