It's 30th June, 8:43pm, it's the target launch date, and I've made it.
A few minutes ago I uploaded the live version of the Poker Copilot website. Now you can download the trial version. You can also buy Poker Copilot.
Let me just reach over my own shoulder and pat myself on the back. Okay, done. That felt good. Now I can take a break from development for a few days at least. Time for me to fire up this Poker Copilot thing and see if it can't help me play a mean game of poker.

About This Blog
In May 2008 I started working on Poker Copilot, initially as a product to help me with my own poker playing. Soon I joined a "30-day Challenge", where the participants each aimed to launch a software product in 30 days. As a result of this challenge, Poker Copilot version 1.0 was launched in July 2008.
This blog tracks the ongoing development of Poker Copilot. Who would find this blog interesting? People interested in 1-person software development, in Poker, or in both.

Well done!
Congratulations Steve! Well done on getting the whole job done within the 30 days. One piece of unsolicited advice - put a chart, preferably showing a winning streak, on the homepage.
The homepage as it stands is a rather unengaging wall of text - a nice-looking chart would give it some visual appeal, show at a glance what the software is about, and (if you choose the *right* chart) will immediately make poker players relate to it in a positive way.
Congrats on the launch! I have to agree with Richie H. I think it would be much more effective to have a screen shot right on the homepage - it would help convey what it is you're selling and help grab the customer's attention.
Once again, congrat's, Steve!
I tend to agree a screenshot would be nice on the homepage. I do like the logo though!
Congrats!
I have finally freed up some time to actually play now. I will give the trial a spin and let you know. Sorry I couldn't get to it sooner.
Congratulations on your release!
