My first commercial solo-programming experience so far. It's a fantastic product, so I hope that 2d game developers will buy it :-)Check out Unity Asset Store here.

Statistics at addons.opera.com
This summer, I did a tiny project at Opera implementing a downloads graph for extensions.
The feature had been requested for some time, and I wanted to work on a task that was rewarding to do. It seemed like it did not depend on much else than the raw data that it was supposed to display, but it was at the same time important, and nontrivial to create; perfect for a summer intern to do!
I took some time to familiarize myself with the libraries used at addons.opera.com and developed the first prototype in a few weeks time. After that I did improvements based on the feedback that I got from my mentor and the rest of my team. The developers at addons.opera.com were always eager to see the things that I made, so getting early feedback was not a problem.
Getting feedback from extension developers, on the other hand, was not so easy for me. In fact, we agreed that writing about the feature some place were extension developers would see it could attract the attention that wee needed.
My internship is now over, but I'm very happy to see that addons.opera.com is doing well, and that the things that I made have shown up in their productions release. Opera seems to invest a lot in their summer interns, and it works! Thumbs up!

Work vacation
Here's the problem with work vacation: everyone around me are at work; I'm on work vacation. The difference? They are waiting for their traditional vacations, I'm going back to startup-long work days in a few months time (I enjoy those as well, no worries).Fredag 03.august 2012

Vision One
There was a time when all the shadows of these tall buildings Would throw their cape around each corner of the grassy field And one by one, each new shade, would cover the green way back; Allowing changes that we could not have foreseen
Everybody let us gaze upon the world we created And let's rest our eyes upon the great machine, as we wave goodbye Feel the evening breeze caress your smile, the cities are dying As we watch it fall to a modern state, a modern time
Remember when we'd hear the distant sound of human life? A zillion noises whip our eyes that travel through the sky And one by one, each little sound, has faded away with time, Allowing changes that we could not have foreseen
Everybody let us say goodbye to all our notions. 'Cause there's not enough to say that we're humane, when we're left behind It's too late to think that we can worship human emotions 'Cause we've already evolved into machines, in our minds
