There are things happening now: this is a truism.

I am somewhat intoxicated. This is also a truism, as my Twitter feed can attest.

However, these two facts serve together to loosen my usually very shy tongue, inducing me to wax lyrical where I would ordinarily smile & nod, trying not to inconvenience anyone unlucky enough to be burdened with my company. Whether this is a good thing or not I will leave as a thought exercise to you, Dear Reader, for I am too drunk to manage such cerebral tasks st this precise juncture.

The chief reason for this missive is this: I have been working hard on an iPhone application these past few months, and it is finally about to be released. The application in question is Outpost, a Basecamp client from a company called Morfunk. It had been a long time in the making, longer than your overconfident author had originally envisioned, but it is at last entering its final testing and clean-up phase, and will be submitted to the App Store within a week.

The application itself represents a great deal of hard work from both my business partner David Kaneda and myself, over a number of months. We have striven at every turn to create an application which would be both intuitive and powerful, whilst giving us a solid platform upon which to build for the future. We intend to stay in this business for a long time, and to provide our customers with the best tools we can make. Our roadmap does not stop at Basecamp support.

For those waiting for the release of Outpost, I thank you for your patience, and I hope that you will agree that the product justifies the time you have waited. You will not have to wait much longer.
