Finally updated the tidepass monkey icon to something more relevant, and consistent across the versions.

sc2daily.com launches
I am excited to announce the launch of sc2daily.com!
eSports and Starcraft 2 popularity has grown considerably this year and as a fan of Starcraft 2, some friends and I have created sc2daily.com.
sc2daily.com aggregates news, social updates, live streams, casts and discussion from around the web, to bring all the latest Starcraft 2 content to you in one place.
DNSCrypt
I’ve been a fan of OpenDNS free DNS service for some time now, and I’ve been using the preview version of a new tool they have called DNSCrypt.
DNSCrypt encrypts your DNS lookups in a similar way that HTTPS traffic is encrypted. This helps prevent DNS traffic snooping and such.
Today the client notified me of an update, and it looks like they finally have persistent settings across reboots, which makes it so much better. I highly recommend both OpenDNS service and DNSCrypt.

tidepass .NET 2.0.0.2 released
Minor update:
- Added the option to automatically make the password unique to the current year.

- You can switch this on and off using “Alt + Y” or in the right-click context menu.
- Your setting is preserved across sessions.
- Other minor tweaks and bugfixes.

tidepass .NET 2.0 released
Released a major update to the .NET version of tidepass.
Changes include:
- A new password generating algorithm.
The old algorithm is left as the default and is called v1. The new one is called v2. To switch to v2 Right-Click the background and click use v2.x Passwords. You can also hit Alt+1/Alt+2.
The most noticeable change is v2 uses ASCII85 instead of Base64 encoding. v2 will also always make the first letter of the password a lower case letter. (As sooo many sites seem to enforce this) - Some performance tweaks for v1.
v2 is likely a little slower however I’ll be working on optimizing it. - Some UI tweaks.
Password boxes slightly wider. Algorithm used is shown. - Some bugfixes.
- Added About Page with Credits.
Right-Click background -> About.
You can download it at http://apps.tidesoft.com.au/tidepass.

StockPrice 1.0.0.27 Released
Released new version of StockPrice.
This fixes the Google Finance and Yahoo7 Finance prices which were broken due to changes in the data format of the providers.
I am also working on StockPrice v2 which will be re-written in WPF.
Google Apps to Exchange / Windows Live Migration
I am currently migrating tidesoft.com.au from Google Apps to Microsoft Exchange Online and Windows Live.
Migration is going pretty well (have a lot of Email to transfer), but there will probably be some broken links on this site until I get everything sorted.
