As an exercise in Windows programming I made a little alarm clock program called SuperAlarm that would use Winamp to play MP3s. I put in the readme that I liked Skittles and postcards; I got a number of postcards and one day I got a 1-pound bag of Skittles from someone in Canada. I still remember how great that felt even 15+ years later.
Haha, I found a screenshot of the app: http://www.softpedia.com/progScreenshots/SuperAlarm-Screenshot-121259.html http://www.softpedia.com/progScreenshots/SuperAlarm-Screensh...
- mijustin 14y agoHa ha. That's awesome: a bag of Skittles from Canada! (as a Canadian, I appreciate this). Question: why did you decide not to put a price on it?
- MattGrommes 14y agoIt was probably a combination of not thinking it was worth actual money (it was the first time I'd made anything for Windows), and my early Linux era free software mindset.
