This week has been sort of slow. I returned back from a Colorado ski with my father and brother last Saturday. Nick has been taking a much needed rest the past few days, and Scott has been working through Nick and my game of vacation musical chairs. Nick will be back with us again next week. I've been redesigning the front page (skritter.com) and will be creating a new demo video (I liked the explosions in the old one, so I think I'll keep those, but I'm open to ideas for more demo quirkiness. Suggestions anyone?). Scott and I have also designed a few slight changes to the way vocabulary items are selected on the vocabulary list page and added a delete button to the Queue browser. All of those changes will go live shortly.
Scott has fixed a number of vocabulary loading errors that were causing glitches; there has been one bug that continues to elude us though. Some users have experienced freezing practice screens. We suspect the problem stems from an error on App Engine's side, but we haven't been able to track it down yet. More news on that when we figure it out, and to those affected/afflicted, sorry for the frustration.
This week is Oberlin College's spring break, so we've been visiting more than usual with friends, which has been very nice. Spring comes to Oberlin late due to the cooling effects of lake Eerie so its still chilly, but the spring weather is slowly encroaching. I can't wait for the heat to return.
