Free Speech Day - June Fourth
Today I read that China has stepped up its Internet censorship in anticipation of the 20 year anniversary of Tiananmen Square on June 4th. A thoughtful reader on Slashdot, a popular technical news forum, suggested that the "internet crowd" make June 4 an official Free Speech Day. He suggests that every website post a small banner or comment regarding freedom of speech so that it is very difficult for a government organization to censor the comments without blocking most of the Internet.
As I am strongly in favor of this idea, I have shown my support by registering the domain name freespeechday.com and encourage any one willing to participate to share ideas for this new website on the support forums .
Thank you for your support. Happy Free Speech Day.

Ask Dave - What would you Ask Dave?
From the pages of Blogography and the compilers of Bindle Binaries come the latest addition to the Bindle Binaries iPhone collection. The Ask Dave app is a variation of classic fortune-telling meme. The application features six 'lil Dave characters. Each Dave has an unique theme and set of answers. After selecting a Dave and shaking the device, the 'lil character will shake his slate before displaying the answer.
This app provided a good exercise in use of simple QuartzCore animations; view transitions; and memory management. The source code for "Ask Dave" has been released under the GNU GPLv2 license. The graphics are available under the CC by-nc-nd license for use with the source code.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or issues, please contact David M. Syzdek at syzdek@bindlebinaries.net. We are always eager to receive feedback from users.
— The Development Team
Update 2009/05/10:
Apple has accepted the "Ask Dave" application. It is now available to download from the iTunes App Store.

Bindle Binaries - Current News
According to our web site, the last nine months have been pretty slow for Bindle Binaries. In truth, we were burning the midnight oil working on new projects, tackling contract work, and turning up a support site. In all of the commotion, the web site fell by the way side. This last week the website was brought into renewed focus. We imported the old news into the new support site and configured the Bindle Binaries web server to pull the support site's news feed. Hopefully this new system will allow the news on the Bindle Binaries website to stay up to date with the latest announcements from projects hosted by Bindle Binaries.
As usual feel free to send any questions, comments, or suggestions to syzdek@bindlebinaries.net. To report a problem with one of our software packages, please register for a free account and open a ticket on the Support Site.
