Rikai for Android! Well, as one might have guessed my Boggle like Game "Bogged" was just a warm-up for a rikai-like thingy I wanted to write. Android browsers don't yet support proper extensions, and running javascript on java on a phone processing an entire dictionary in memory just isn't going to work anytime soon. Nor will my original rikai.com site, given the limited bandwidth.

So I wrote rikaixul / rikaichan / rikaikun like functionality in Java, on android. Took a lot of hackery, and there's a lot more I can do with it I think (I'd especially like to take a swipe at auto-creation of anki cards, etc.).

Anyway, if you have an Android phone and want to play with the initial release, here's Rikai on Android for you.  ¶ 5/12/2011 (0) comments

  Bogged (Boggle clone for Android) I've published my first android app. A game called "Bogged" similar to the classic Boggle.

It was really just a simple thing to teach myself how to do this, but I think it's probably the snazziest version available. Let me know what you think!

  I'm a granddad! Thanks to the GPL, there's now rikai functionality for Google Chrome, based on my my rikaixul experiment from 6 years ago. Long live free software!  ¶ 1/06/2010 (1) comments
