Cripes.
I just won Ironcoder. I now join the esteemed ranks previous winners: Lucas Eckels, Gus Mueller and Mark Dalyrmple.
A big thank-you to Mark for hosting and judging Ironcoder. As we’ve learnt over the previous contests, judging Ironcoder is a tough and time consuming job (although Lucas had it easy). And coming up with interesting APIs and themes isn’t easy either. Now I have been “rewarded” with this task for the next Ironcoder.
I’ll post more about my winning entry “spacecam” later. I was actually quite surprised I won after seeing some of the other entries, all of which were rather cool.
Ironcoder started off as pet project of the #macsb irc channel (itself an offshoot of the “Mac Small Business Mailing List“). And as such many of the usual suspects from #macsb are amongst the entrants. However I get a big kick out of all the Ironcoder entries that were from people I’ve never heard of and have never seen in irc.
Jeff Smykil from Ars Technica has taken an interest in Ironcoder and has posted an article on Friday announcing it. It is good to see outside interest in Ironcoder and I hope this trend continues.
