    We are very excited to announce the latest version, 5.2, of all the Pedias. Although this version includes quite a good number of fixes and enhancements the real new features are in the brand-new Doghouse. The original Doghouse was very popular and served us well for over a year. However with its impressive growth we…

    We are proud to announce Pocketpedia 3.1, now with full editing capabilities. It’s taken some time to get this new feature working exactly the way we wanted it to but we are very happy with the results. In addition to editing and manually add we’ve also added a new cover capture algorithm that lets you…

    From time to time we receive requests that are easy to implement but don’t really fit in with the programs because they seem very specific to one user’s needs. But maybe we’re wrong to think that others wouldn’t enjoy these little fixes too. So I have started a new plugin that is a repository of…

    Since the last update of Bookpedia, version 5.1.4, users have access to the vast database of Google books. Especially for our international users and those doing ISBN searches this is a great addition. The new plug-in proved so popular that the program started hitting its API search limit recently, which Google sets to 1000 searches…

    As many of you know, the often updated beta versions of the Pedias are our work horses for the programs. That’s where bug fixes are implemented and new features are added for users to test and play with. The latest feature added (currently only in the English beta version of DVDpedia, will come to all…

    We’ve just released 5.1.4 of the Pedias, both the regular and Mac App Store versions. This update includes some pretty important search plug-in updates, especially for IMDb in DVDpedia and DiscoGS in CDpedia. We’ve also noticed that collectors are branching out into different areas—ranging from vintage film memorabilia to the best meme coins — so…

    After struggling with their servers and mirrors for years, we finally found one that’s slightly better than the others so Conor has put together a search plug-in for the ofdb.de site. It’s still very much a beta plug-in because the server times out at times and sometimes refuses searches without explanation. But hopefully it’ll still…

    Version 5.1.2 is ready for download in the App Store now as well, except for DVDpedia which for some reason was not granted the same expedited review process as the other three programs. This is the first time we’ve applied for an expedited review since the Amazon API issue is time sensitive (it comes into…

    Amazon is changing their API access requirements on August 31, 2012. It will be limited to associates only which means a personal associate ID will be required by all users accessing Amazon. For most users no action should be necessary since you should already have your own associate ID linked to your AWS account and…

    A new version of Pocketpedia is out! We were very happy with the initial release of Pocketpedia and got wonderful responses from you all – thank you! – but as it happens, a few bugs slipped past us in the first version so 3.0.1 addresses mostly those little bugs and annoyances. Some users with older…
