rooSwitch: Now award winning
Tonight was Apple’s annual design award’s ceremony. rooSwitch took runner-up in the Developer Tool category!
I’m obviously pretty excited about this and am glad I made it to WWDC this year. It’s really awesome to have something I made be recognized by Apple.
On with the thanks.
I’ll start by thanking my wife and our two girls. They don’t know Cocoa (yet) nor do they use rooSwitch, they do put up with me and occasionally encourage my programming habits.
Next the peers. I had a lot of help with rooSwitch from some great peers. Specifically (in first name alphabetical order): Andy Kim, Daniel Jalkut, Luis de la Rosa and Steve Harris. I actually got to go out to dinner with 3 of those 4 tonight (all but Daniel). It was my first time meeting both Andy and Steve in person.
Now the catch-all (cause I’m sure I forgot someone (sorry)). Thanks to everyone on the rooSwitch beta mailing list and all the users that provided feedback.
OK, that’s all.

Congrats! And I even used rooSwitch just before the ADA to make a testing profile to do WebnoteHappy performance testing with Shark. So yes - it is a great dev tool!

Congratulations, Brian! You’ve created something original that’s useful to both developers and users, and you worked hard on it too. Well-deserved.

Congrats! It was nice meeting you, and sorry I didn’t get a chance to interview you for TUAW in San Fran. What would you say to doing a Skype interview at some point?
