Check out my StackList profile.

I really enjoy working on my apps / libraries. Here are just some of them:

As mentioned above, it would be awesome if you joined StackList and listed your apps / libraries there. Eventually, there will be some awesome tools for bug tracking, etc. Details here.

Here is my Amazon book wish list.

Jun 6	comment	Stack Mobile - View Stack Exchange Sites on Your Smart Phone or Tablet @ObsessiveFOSS: Unfortunately the app has become too popular for its own good :P So many people are using it that it exceeds the rate limit for API requests and the API blocks the app for a few hours.
Jun 5	comment	The applications listed on a user's apps tab are a little crowded. @PaulFryer: I've answered your question.
Jun 3	comment	Installing user scripts on site? Although a great idea, I think this has far too much potential for abuse. As for security, yes - UserScripts run with pretty much the same privileges as JavaScript code on the page. However, your suggestion doesn't really go into detail on how these scripts would be approved for embedding on the site.
Jun 1	comment	StackApplet - Bringing Stack Exchange Notifications to Your Desktop [1.6 alpha for Windows released using v2.0 of the API!] Excellent - glad to hear it's working for you.
Jun 1	comment	StackApplet - Bringing Stack Exchange Notifications to Your Desktop [1.6 alpha for Windows released using v2.0 of the API!] As of version 1.6 (currently in Alpha), only inbox items are included in notifications (so that would include answers to your questions, comments directed to you, and anything else you would see in your global inbox).
May 23	comment	Find the recently added tag or find the tags that are new to Stack Overflow I'm afraid this is not possible because the `/tags` method only provides three sorting methods and none of them are for the creation date of the tag.
May 16	comment	StackApplet - Bringing Stack Exchange Notifications to Your Desktop [1.6 alpha for Windows released using v2.0 of the API!] @BrianFenton: Sorry about that - for some unknown reason, the permissions on that file were set to `600` instead of `644`. I have fixed the permissions now, so you should be able to download the installer.
May 16	comment	StackApplet - Bringing Stack Exchange Notifications to Your Desktop [1.6 alpha for Windows released using v2.0 of the API!] There is now an alpha version available.
May 16	comment	so++ - C++ Library @BrandonClark: Yes, that is correct. so++ supported a limited set of requests against v1.0 of the API and as such should still work.
May 16	comment	Stack Mobile - View Stack Exchange Sites on Your Smart Phone or Tablet @BrandonClark: It's a web application. Just go to stackmobile.com on your PlayBook's web browser.
May 14	comment	StackImage 2 - Create Your Own Unique Custom Flair! @jamesdlin: Ah, I get it. Well, depending on how things go, that may end up being a possibility.
May 14	comment	How to get network profile username? Don't forget that the network profile isn't actually separate from the other accounts - it is simply synched with one of the other accounts. So all the API would need to do is indicate which account was currently chosen.
May 14	comment	StackImage 2 - Create Your Own Unique Custom Flair! @jamesdlin: I am currently in the process of unifying the accounts on all of my web applications, so at least there will only be a single name / password to remember. The reason I need authentication is because the tool needs to store a lot of information for each flair instance - more than I could fit in the query string of a URL. Therefore, to facilitate the storage and to eventually (though not yet implemented) allow for editing instances, authentication is required.
May 7	comment	Detecting StackExchanges with non-standard “plugins” (e.g. MathJax) Wow... I didn't realize so many sites had deployed MathJax.
May 4	comment	Stack Mobile - View Stack Exchange Sites on Your Smart Phone or Tablet @Benny: Sorry about that. It's fixed now.
May 1	comment	Stack Alert [Opera] - Keep tabs on your inbox without needing to have a Stack Exchange site open This has been fixed now. Please let me know if you have any further issues installing this extension.
May 1	comment	Stack Alert [Opera] - Keep tabs on your inbox without needing to have a Stack Exchange site open This is definitely a misconfiguration with my web server. I'll let you know when I have it fixed.
Apr 30	comment	StackMaps - Interactive Maps of Stack Exchange Communities +1 because this app is awesome.
Apr 28	comment	Python library for the StackExchange v2 API? I'm planning to write one soon as well.
Apr 25	comment	Ask Ubuntu Toolbar Buttons - A set of toolbar buttons for Ask Ubuntu that make it easy to insert links to packages, PPAs, etc. @JorgeCastro: Sure - that button looks awesome.
