A lite version of Oz Quiz has been released free for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Get it now, and if you like it, buy the full version with over 600 questions.

A new version of Oz Quiz with 300 questions covering covering history, politics, popular culture, our indigenous people, environment, technology, arts, music, sport, geography, law, demography, and more, has been released free for the Apple Dashboard.

Given that Oz Quiz for the iPhone is built using HTML + JS, and also the easily adaptable quiz script I built for the iPhone, it was relatively simple to create a dashboard widget w ith the same functionality as the iPhone version.

Download it and have a go - and if you run out of questions, grab Oz Quiz for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

Today ArrowKeyControl (AKC) had the 200,000th score submitted to the website; considering that I launched AKC 54 days ago, I'm pretty happy with the achievement.

AKC has 12,862 users which makes for 15.8 scores submitted per user, on average. This compares to the original KeyControl, which has 99,889 scores submitted and 16,768 users, for 5.8 scores submitted per user (average).

I'm looking forward to the next 100,000 scores for AKC; keep playing!

I’ve created a new game for the Apple Dashboard called ArowKeyControl. In this game, you are shown an arrow; you have to press the corresponding arrow key on your keyboard. Get it right, and you go again, except you have to be faster. Get it wrong, or hit the right key too slowly, and it’s game over. My previous game for the Apple Dashboard has been played over 90,000 times, and ArrowKeyControl is even more fast-paced and intense.

You can grab the game from http://akc.bloople.net; the site still needs a few finishing touches, but everything should work ok. Let me know what you like / hate about the game in the comments.
