I’m looking for beta participants for my PC client! See http://blog.sc.tri-bit.com/archives/151.

While I was out, I found myself wishing I had my printer, to make Sudoku grids. Thanks to my CafePress store, it won’t be an issue again.

Well, it’s really not ”’that”’ big a deal, but still.

I’ve been really addicted to Sudoku (aka Su Doku, Nanpure or Number Place) lately. Hand-making puzzles is calming to me, in a sort of mantra fashion, and since a puzzle takes about 20 minutes to build, it’s a good way to shed brain-fry. I had made a quick PDF to print to make boards, to save myself loads of sloppy grid drawing, but as I was on the road over the last several days, I didn’t have my printer.

Being a tightwad, I didn’t want to pay Kinko’s umpty million dollars a page to make games, so I toughed it out on a blank pad. That said, as I was on a plane back, it sort of hit me: I have a fulfillment line already set up for Sudoku at Cafe Press. Next time, I can just have one mailed to my hotel, at a reasonable price.

So, I made the book, and I’ve put it up at Cafe Press for the rest of you Sudoku fans who like to make their own puzzles. Enjoy.
