I is not for integrity


I met another fellow who has used the iHero name, this time for an iPhone game, we had a hour long meeting in the summer of 2009. His name is Erik Dahlman and his company, Dataspire, writes apps for iphone that they sell at the istore.

So he made a game called iHero -- while troubling, that is not the most troubling part.

At our meeting I gave him an idea for an iphone game and that I had other ideas/could think of other things as well -- I emailed him a couple times after the meeting and he never replied -- disturbing-- he seemed like a reasonable guy.

So now his company has a new game called "monkey fireworks" -- a major change from their previous portfolio-- which turns out to have the root idea that I presented him in the summer -- moving vectors across the screen that the user had to click on.

I can't express the disappointment I feel towards humanity when people behave in a selfish , "integrity free"manor.

Would it really cost a company that much to pay for a think tank or provide some small amount of credit -- especially to someone that already has a full time job?

Awesome Hack Attack

Well you just have to be impressed with the latest Hack in the news. The iHero could not have created a better storyline. I'll have to send the defender a T-shirt -- once I find out who detected the hack:

Internet Hero

I was very surprised to get a check in the mail the other day from iUniverse -- it appears I sold some more books -- now please get out there and write some reviews at amazon.com:

How am I supposed to make the next book better if I don't have any feedback ?

Next ihero Book

Well I have an outline -- but the ihero prototypes use up about 90% of my time -- my wife gets the other 10% -- all are well worth it. My next book will account for my military background and some of the stuff I do at work. I plan on taking the first book -- fixing all the errors, adding about 6 more chapters and republish. I'll actually get an editor this time.

New iHero Knight

Well we've been very busy here at iHero -- unfortunately it hasn't been with iHero business.

We have a new Knight joining the router table -- we were going to call him Star Knight -- but I won't do on to others as has been done on to me -- someone is already using that name -- maybe STE for Star Knight Entertainment......

You can see his helmet on the ihero.com web site. later Darc
