Accidentally had buttons update late this week, switched PM for AM. But that’s okay because Star Trek deserved a little more time on the front page.

Ah, stats. I know I probably shouldn’t care about them, but it’s sometimes fun to check out the traffic of this burgeoning site. The first thing I notice is that There is a predictable peek in traffic every 7 days. Seems like a lot of people do their surfing on Sundays. Either that or my weekly post on RR is still driving the lion’s share of traffic. However, RR is not our only beneficiary.

We’re getting linked to! While the site is still starting out I’d like to make my appreciations known on a personal level to a few folks. StackOverflow apparently liked my homework suggestions. Star Trek is a big draw for a couple of German websites; ich spreche kein Deutsch so I have to rely on automated translation tools, but I think they said positive things. And a big shout out to the Abras (whoever that is) for a lovely post on the Ubanatu Forums. You rock. That’s what I’m talking about.

As there are new people trickling into Cymon’s Games, let me recommend you check out the games, download a few, and be sure to vote on them. Make a few comments. And if you decide to try your hand at programming, load up CodeBlocks with MinGW, maybe actually type in a few beginning programs, check out some learning resources if you need them.

(I like that so much I think I’ll add it to the about page.)

The book is ready for your digestion! It’s still in its early stages, but I am soliciting feedback. I should probably make a bigger deal about this, but at the moment I’m doing this because I’m really feeling the bite of the programming bug, but I feel obligated to give you something.

If you like what you’re seeing here let me again encourge you to encourage me by contributing to the success of Cymon’s Games.
