Congrats Mark! Looks like you'll surpass your 2013 goals before it even starts. I'm a very happy user of the app and have known Mark for years. He is awesome!

He has another really neat and surprisingly useful app on the AppStore: Lidpop - http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lidpop/id441887602?mt=12 http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lidpop/id441887602?mt=12 - "Lidpop makes your Macintosh play a sound when it sleeps or wakes up. Close the lid with a resounding clank or a happy slide whistle. Open it back up with a laugh or a whimsical chime — it's up to you. Lidpop brings a dash of personality to your computer."
When I open my Air, Scotty (Star Trek) says "Hello Computer" and when I shut it down, Vader (Star Wars) says "Nooooooooo." I know it seems trifling but always brings a smile to my face wherever I am, including work meetings.
- ricardobeat 14y agoNice app. I'm going to steal your idea if you don't mind.
- markchristian 14y agoHa, the idea for the app or the idea for the silly sounds? ;) Note: my wake-up sound is currently the boot sound effect form OS/2 Warp 4, just because I love weird, retro-computing goodness.
- ricardobeat 14y agoThe sound, I just bought the app. Beep up + vader :) Also, if anyone is suffering on a quest for "nooo", hint: vader_14.mp3
- markchristian 14y agoFollow-up: another great sleep sound is Stauff's “Come baaaaaaaack” from the 7th Guest, for those of you old enough to remember double speed CD-ROM drives being exciting.
- AVTizzle 14y agoCurious - can we get any insight into said 2013 goals? I'm in the process of setting our product goals and am curious how others have done.
