I finally settled on BrainForest and a OmniOutliner to Brainforest Applescript. The catcher is that I'll still have to write the BrainForest to OmniOutliner component of the script. Oh, for the day where everybody imports and exports OPML...

Well, that day came. Brainforest's Mac and Windows Desktop Component supports OPML import/export. So you can export your OmniOutliner documents to OPML, import them into BrainForest, then sync to your Palm.

Of course, it would be nice to automate the import/export, but at least it's far easier now than it was before. W00t.

Boy, was I missing out.

The idea of sudoku is to fill in rows, columns, and regions with the numbers 1-9. Except you can't have more than 1 instance of a number in any given row, column, or region.

Back up. Sudoku is played in a 9x9 grid. Inside this grid are 9 3x3 sub-grids (the regions). The idea is to place numbers on each grid item, so that the numbers 1-9 only appear one time in a given row/column/region.

Sounds like a great 10-15 minute game... and wouldn't it be great to play it on my Palm, with it taking care of some of the bookkeeping ("Oh, right, I didn't see that 2 there...") for me? Andrew Gregory's Sudoku Palm application fills that On the Go need for me. There's also a console version of Sudoku, by Michael Kennett (but I didn't take the 15 minutes to figure out why the makefile wouldn't install the binaries for me).

On the Mac, there's Sudoku Susser which is alright (even if the interface could use some work).

For those of you who either don't get a Sudoku puzzle in your papers, or don't have a subscription to the paper (like me!), there's the Daily Sudoku, which even lets you get skill appropriate Sudoku.

Happy Puzzle-ing!
