I am currently working on v1.01 of the Shape Fun app available on the Android Market. The new version will add an accelerometer function and an exit button, that way you do not have to force stop the app.

I recently published an app on the Android Market that uses the new AIR Runtime. It randomly puts ten squares on the screen and you can use all the gestures allowed in the new AIR 2 on the squares. Gestures include: drag and drop, pinch-to-zoom, and rotate. Just search “Shape Fun” on the Android Market.

Out of boredom, I have started my ChemistryConversion Program project again. The file is a .jar(Java executable file, so you need Java installed). It does Mass-to-Mole, Mole-to-Mass, Moles-to-Molecules, and Mass-to-Molecule conversions.
Please email me with any bugs that are found in the program at: stevenberger101@gmail.com

The game Medal of Honor that comes out in October has been banned from being sold at an U.S. Military Base. It is banned from nearly 300 exchange stops as well as any of the 49 Gamestop stores that are scattered and a various amount of bases. This is due to the fact that the game allows users to play as the Taliban and kill U.S. troops. Although the game has been banned from being sold on Military Bases around the U.S., troops can still purchase the game somewhere off base. If the military was to ban the game from being played on bases, then they would be taking away EA’s right of Freedom of Speech.
I feel that the banning of Medal of Honor is a joke. There is no difference between the amount of violence in Medal of Honor and the violence in any of the Call of Duty games or even Counter-Strike. The only difference that I see is that in Medal of Honor, they are putting a “real” name on the enemy instead of just calling them the “terrorists” or making up a name they are using the an actual term like the “Taliban”. I have had the game pre-ordered for the past two months and am proud.

A couple days ago, I made a Paint Splatter wallpaper sized perfectly for the Motorola Droid. The wallpaper has also been added to Flikie Wallpapers HD under the name Color Splash. You can find it by doing a search for color in the program. If you would like it sized for any other phone just send me a message with the phone you would like the wallpaper for.

Being very bored today, I decided to root my Moto Droid again. I rooted it a couple months ago, but then un-rooted it due to some issues I was having. I decided to root my device again following this guide. Once done I installed ROM Manager and flashed ClockWork Recovery to my phone and download and installed Cyanogen Mod 6.0.0(stable release) as my custom ROM. I am still working on trying to find a nice theme that I like, but so far the root as worked really well.
