iPhone App Puzzle

A friend of mine, David Johnson, has just released a new iPhone application called "Tri-me". It is the most addictive activity I've undertaken for a looooooong, long time.

The most frustrating, and gratifying, thing about it is that it is so simple - or it should be.

Every time I complete a level, I have about two seconds of self-satisfying gratification, before the overwhelming urge to start the next level kicks in.

Then I'm in real trouble again.

Tri-me, which is available in the iTunes store, costs less than a very cheap cup of coffee. But it lasts a LOT longer.

Apparently there are 41 levels. I am stuck on level 16.

My advice is to head over to iTunes or search your iPhone app store and try Tri-me - you're gonna love it ... and also hate it!

And if anyone knows any hints, tips or blatant cheats to get me past level 16, please leave a comment!

New Payment Widget

Receiving credit card payments from your customers just got even sexier with the release of Xilo's new iCharge JX.

The payment widget is completely seamless. You have full control over design elements. And processing is done on the gateway's secure server, so you don't even need to have SSL certificates (although your clients may be reassured if you still do).

You can take a test drive on Xilo's website and apply for a free trial.
