Halloween Story: Escape the Jam Factory [Infographic]

Posted: 23 Oct 2012 09:03 AM PDT

Hear that mad cackling in the distance at night? That scraping against your bedroom window when you've turned out the light? It's Halloween, returning for yet another night of candle-lit graveyards, ghastly costume parties and horror movie bonanzas. Halloween – originally "All Hallows' Evening" – occurs on October 31 and is nowadays celebrated in countries around the world. The hordes of grinning pumpkins and bed sheet-clad ghosts point to the holiday's origins: pagan harvest festivals and feasts in honour of the dead. Soon there'll be trick-or-treating monsters knocking on your door and demanding chocolate, so while you wait, get in the mood with this infographic.

Can you escape the Jam Factory – home of Obergine's terrifying offices – before dawn? The only way to find out is to have a go – or maybe a run. After all, learning is more fun when you flee for your life…

Seth's Blog : Toward a mobile app for this blog

Toward a mobile app for this blog

Every few days, someone asks for a new mobile app for the blog. I've been ducking the issue for a while, because I'd like it to be something worth using, but I don't have a passionate or commercial interest in creating one--it's not a focus of mine. But it's time.

One approach is to just license my RSS feed to anyone who wants to build an app around it. I'm hesitating to do that, because if it has my name on it, I'd like it to be reliable, and the app store makes it hard to tell the good ones from the not so good. So I thought I'd ask developers if they'd like to take this on, and what they'd like to do if they did. We might end up with two or three approved apps that you could choose from. They might end up being free or costing money. We'll see. My goal is for it to be easy for you to use and really headache-free for me to create.

If you're a developer and you'd like to suggest yourself for this project, here's a simple form to fill out. Please don't email me about it, but I promise to review the first forty applications I receive. Deadline is November 2, and as usual, extra points for being early.
