Xblaze

Very happy to announce that Xblaze has just been approved by Apple and should appear in the App Store very very shortly!

I’m really happy about this, and I’m really impress at how fast Apple worked through my submission. The app went into review at 9:15am EST, and was approved by 15:51pm EST. That’s just over 6 and a half hours! Excellent work Apple!

So everyone must go and download it, and don’t forget to leave a review!!

PS. I’ll have a page up soon where you can see a screen cast of the app…

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who signed up for the Xblaze iPhone Beta. Your input and feedback has been extremely useful throughout the testing period.

I would also like to announce that Xblaze iPhone has now been submitted to the App Store for review! I’m hoping the approval process won’t take that long, and Xblaze should be available to download very shortly.

Here are some screen shots to tide you over

Holy cow! An Update?!

Ladies and gentlemen, I proudly present to you Xblaze 1.0.

I’ve rewritten Xblaze from the ground up as a brand new Adium plugin using the MacFire Xfire communication library (thanks to Archon). This means no more XfireLib. While XfireLib served Xblaze pretty well, it was responsible for 90% of its problems. Since XfireLib seems to have ceased active development, I decided it was time to move away from it.

Xblaze 1.0 requires Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard and Adium 1.4 beta

So what’s new?

• Completely rewritten from the ground up
• No more XfireLib
  • Xblaze now uses the foundation that MacFire was built on (Thanks Archon!)
• No regression
  • Xblaze supports all the features that it did in previous versions
• Multiple Accounts
• Tightly integrated with Adium
• Search for other Xfire users

Head on over to the Download page and try it out.
