Hi Bob,
This looks like an awesome blog! Would you be interested in having it
show up on planet firefox os?

I think Dietrich (CC'd) can help set you up there if you're interested.
Thanks!

I've started a blog (with 19 posts so far, averaging about one post a
day)! My blog will cover two vaguely related subjects:
1. Game reviews on games written for Firefox OS that are in the
Marketplace. I test these games on my ZTE Open phone and write about
them. I like games and always have and games are starting to appear
in the Marketplace. If you're looking for a good game, try here. Feel
free to suggest a game for me to review, even if it's a game you
wrote!
2. Game programming articles aimed at writing games for Firefox OS
for phones. HTML5, of course! I have been doing web programming a
long time for fun, but now am retired and doing it full blast. I'm
taking it slow and testing everything on my ZTE Open, which seems
like a good test bench since it is probably going to be the lowest
common hardware for Firefox OS.
Why am I doing this? Well, I have tried almost every other platform
and the development tools are irritating. I'm a life-long engineer,
now retired, and the best tools are right here with Firefox OS. Get
the browser, install the plugin, test it in the simulator, hook up a
cable to your phone, and bang, Bob's your uncle, and you have a
working app. And the best
Right now I'm doing a series testing out how to have a bouncing ball
using HTML5/JavaScript/CSS only, Canvas with drawing commands and
bitmaps, and next week, SVG using three different aspects (as it says
in Zelda, "It's a secret to everyone"). But I'd like to slowly
develop some games in HTML5 over time and invite people to come along
to learn (or laugh), and mix it in with game reviews. After all,
games are a way of life! (Or is that, games are just a goddamned
hobby?)
So drop by at http://firefoxosgaming.blogspot.com/ and feel free to
read, comment, or just play more games. But the focus is 100% on
Firefox OS on the phone and 100% on games in the Firefox OS
Marketplace (for phones). I'm also on Google+
(google.com/+BobThulfram), Twitter (@thulfram), and Facebook
(facebook.com/thulfram). But I'm actually most active on my blog!
