Compared to our measurements, we have received like a zillion inquiries lately that asked us when an iPad version of Ulysses will be available. First things first, here’s the answer: We have no clue…
This does not sound too promising, I guess, but let me explain. We are having major technical and/or legal problems. All of Ulysses can easily be realized on the iPhone — except one part: Ulysses’ heart. Semantic text editing.
Just a quick note: We’re currently doing a christmas sale. By entering “XMAS” into our shop’s coupon field, you can grab any of Ulysses licence types at a drastically reduced price:
That’s it, nothing else to add.
Oh, well… Merry Christmas everybody. :)
Update: The christmas sale is over. Happy New Year everybody!
As some of may have noticed, the forums are currently down. We don’t know what happened, but it might have to do with us migrating some internal stuff to a new server. Or maybe it’s the weather.
EIther way, thank god it’s saturday, haha, so we’ll be back up and running in no time sometime later this weekend. I guess. Dunno, because I don’t even know what happened.
Stay with us.
UPDATE: Forums are back.
We’re currently experiencing a pretty hefty problem: A lot of customers are contacting us via email, saying they’re still waiting for the registration info to show up in their mailboxes.
Turns out 99% of them are using gmail.com — which, plain and simple, is treating our registration email as spam.
Now, I find this rather curious, and to be honest, I’m angry as hell, but before I let my temper run amok, I’ll take a deep breath and just leave it at this. For now. It’s pretty obvious that Google have messed up their spam filter for good; just do a… haha… google search on gmail filtering legit mail, and you know which provider NOT to use for day-to-day correspondence.
I bet their confirmation mails still get through, but whatever.
Sooooooooo, if you’re wondering why you haven’t heard from us regarding your registration: Check your spam filter and go blame Google. You should do this more often anyway. Blaming Google, that is.
I just activated threaded comments, three levels deep. Not that we need it right now, he, but as soon as people are replying to certain comments, it’s nice to have the feature activated.
So… not much to see here, please move along.
And come back again. :)
A warm welcome to everybody who’s visiting from our old site. This is it. It’s true, for real, no going back now.
As announced over at the travelog, we’ll be bringing every single blue-tec application to our new home — The Soulmen. Beginning with Ulysses 1.7, which is due in a just a few weeks, The Blue Technologies Group as you know it will cease to exists.
These are exciting times and we got a long road ahead.
Welcome aboard, we hope you’ll enjoy the ride.
But I know that this here will not end good in any way. For neither of the two involved.
We’ve had our share of dealing with guerilla tactics in the past. Bad reviews on VersionTracker and MacUpdate, so-called fans of competing applications hijacking “our” review pages in order to promote their beloved app.
My first impulse has always been to go against these types, but then again I didn’t want to spend my time arguing with idiots over advertising disguised as user comments. There’s just no way whatsoever to get to an agreement on that matter. If anything, all you get is bad press and additional downgrading comments from hyped fanboys.
Now, going to court over something like this is just crazy, even if it shows how much money is to be made off the current iPhone market.
Sure blows. Dunno…

The Empty Stage by elward-photography
Not much here at the moment, but expect this to change pretty soon-ish-ly-esque. We’re a small group of software developers and are currently hard at work on several applications for both the iPhone/iPod touch and Mac OS X.
This blog will be our primary output for the next couple of weeks. We intend to post information on our projects as well as provide insights to ideas, decisions and general thoughts on various issues.
You can subscribe to this blog via RSS, and you can also follow us on twitter if you wish.
Drumroll, please…
