Borklog: One entry

10 September 2003

I'm a big fan of the OmniGroup's OmniGraffle program. I guess it's like Visio for those stuck in windows land. It's a diagramming tool, and it does its job very very well. The UI is well designed and efficient. Today I was uber-brainded, and started playing one of the Infocom games I've never played before (Ballyhoo). After doing the standard "get a piece of paper to do the map", I figured, "hey. OmniGraffle can probably do a better job". If a corner of the map gets too crowded, I can move boxes around and the arrows will automagically track it. And so here are the fruits of my first hour or so of Ballyhoo. Wheeeee! (later update : here's one of Starcross in action)
