StackTop

Stacktop is my Mac client (I'm boycotting iPhone dev. for a while due to numerous reasons). It is currently in private beta, with a really crappy set of beta testers. I plan on releasing a public beta in a week or so, I'm currently rewriting MSOEngine to be more efficient.

Here are some screenshots of the private beta build (so it's a little out of date): alt text http://www.mattsapps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/img0.tiff alt text http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/6788/answer.png alt text http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/1568/answer2.png alt text http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/6136/userkb.png

This application will at first be much like a twitter client, then eventually I hope to make it more like an auto-search app where you input keywords then every 10 minutes or so it'll search SO and tell you if there are any questions that haven't been answered that are about whatever your tags are. Hopefully this will allow SO users to gain more rep and kick Jon Skeet out of #1 (Love you Jon!!!)

This will be released for free.

You can download it here

This will be for Mac ONLY

This was written entirely in Objective-C with the help of my Library, MSOEngine

Edits:

Update 1: I have released the first update that contains a few new features:

• Completely rewrote the question display view
• Now displays users questions and answers (doesn't display them yet, I've having some trouble with it
• added sparkle :)

Edit 2: Forgot to add, I implanted some easter eggs. One is very obvious, the other isn't. over 9000 points if you can get both of them and post it as a comment below (note they are two completely unrelated easter eggs. The obvious one has 3 parts to it, the not so obvious one only shows up at a special time)
