We received an excellent tip from Ira Rainey of side lane digital development on a simple method of using Espionage with Dropbox. The method does not involve storing Espionage’d folders inside of Dropbox (which can lead to issues), but rather using Espionage to easily and conveniently encrypt all of the files from your Dropbox on […]
newLISP is an awesome language that I use for all of my scripting needs, but one thing that is missing from it is a nice way of doing real object oriented programming. By default it supports a pseudo-OOP paradigm called FOOP, but FOOP is simply inadequate for doing some of the most rudimentary of OOP […]
Warning: This blog post is an opinion piece by Greg Slepak (while he searches for an appropriate medium), and has nothing to do with Tao Effect news. This weekend I saw Michael Moore’s latest film Capitalism: A Love Story. Like most of his films, this one should come with a disclaimer: for the duration of […]

NEW: Documentation in troubleshooting section on what to check if the Finder causes the password prompt to appear too frequently. IMPROVED: […]

We’ve spent the past month and a half working long hours to bring this update to you, and we hope you like it: NEW: Brand new helper! The heart of Espionage – greatly improved. NEW: Fully […]
While I’m happy to see Grand Central in Snow Leopard, I won’t be using it in any of our applications anytime soon because that means we’d have to turn our backs on all those PPC users out there, and everyone who has yet to upgrade to Snow Leopard. I suspect that this represents a sizable […]
Update: Our host has fixed the problem, the support form is back online. We just noticed that the php installation on our host appears to be a little bit broken in the ‘mail’ department, and because of this we may not have received some support emails. If you have not received a response from us […]
