Hi, here's my first go at building a Construct 2 (hybrid game app creation program) memory match template. I decided that I wanted to create many different versions to see which topics get the most popular so that I would spend more time developing the popular ones. So, which theme do you like the most?
Please try them all and let me know what you think. Or, maybe just 1-3 of the most interesting ones to you.
- Memory Match 3
- Memory Match: Roman Numerals
- Memory Match: Color Names
- Memory Match: Colors
- Memory Match: Numbers
- Memory Match: Alphabet
- Memory Match: Letters
- Memory Match: Wildlife
- Memory Match: Cartoon Animals
Results so far:
- Wildlife theme has the highest amount of downloads.
- Colors theme has second highest amount of downloads.
- Color names theme has second lowest amount of downloads.
- Roman numerals theme has the lowest amount of downloads. (Sidenote: These cards took the longest to create also, so good thing I didn't make more)
- My favorite, "Memory Match 3", is getting close to 100 downloads
This information could be good for any of your app that you may want to theme. Seems like people prefer the basics of wildlife and colors, rather than things that require more thinking like color names and roman numerals.. And, I have about 10 different versions that I need to organize.

Money In The Bank 2
So, awhile back I wrote a post titled, "Money In The Bank Is Freedom On My Back". I just thought of a small extension to it, so sharing away!!
Last time, in an uncharacteristic fashion, I wrote from a single biased perspective. So, I want to make it up this time by better covering multiple perspectives about "money in the bank".
To begin my basic research, this time I opted for the auto-complete feature of search engines.
From a Google search beginning with that phrase, I found:
- "Money in the bank is like toothpaste in the tube"
- "Money in the bank is safe"
- My blog post
- "Money in the bank is stupid"
- "How much money in the bank is insured"
- "Money in the bank is peace of mind"
All of these seem like reasonable perspectives, or at least understandable. When using Chrome's incognito mode, only the last "peace of mind" one shows up.
From a Bing search beginning with that phrase, "money in the bank is " (note the extra space after is), I found:
- "Money in the bank is it m1"
- "Money in the bank in the water"
- "Money in the bank in hot springs ar"
Then I noticed more results when I didn't put the extra space after "is". These results included the ones from above and more:
- "Money in the bank images"
- "Money in the bank injuries"
- "Money in the bank singer"
- "Money in the bank instrumental"
This blog post was suppose to be about me extending my previous money blog post. But, these are very interesting results. I probably should write another post just on the results (I did right here: Money In The Bank 3). The very interesting thing about these results is that it shows what type of people use each search engine! So many things can be said about each search engines' users. Here's just one of the ideas before I link to my full write-up on these results. Google users appear to be straightforward. Bing users appear to be more influenced by media (click here to read more search engine user analysis).
Anyways, getting back on to the original topic. It appears that 2 auto-complete answers are okay with money in the bank, and the other 2 societal answers are against money in banks, oh, and one isn't sure yet. Also, I have a few more perspectives of my own. I'll summarize all the the different thoughts below, in a tree:
"Money in the bank" is..:
When I started this post, I did not know there were going to be this many different thoughts about it. And, these are all big picture still. If anybody else things of more, then I will gladly edit this "chart" to reflect that, and include the idea-er's name.
The real reason I started writing this post was to talk about what's the difference between greed and ambition?
Oh no, time's up for this post. ;)

ps - Maybe it's perspective on life. That may or may not be all of it.
pps - Always time for postscripts. ;) ;)

"Money in the bank" is..:
- Good
- Money is safe
- At least it grows more than money under the bed.
- Freedom to be yourself, not have to work in disliked job. Freedom to travel.
- Available anywhere
- Bad
- Banks are evil
- Can't/refuse to think ahead (...then typically spend right away)
- There are better ways to use money
- Make experiences / help others
- Make more money (...then do the above)
- Greed
- Ambition
- Neutral
- Just don't know
- Don't have money
- "no interest rate" (Technically, getting more money ~0.1%-1% interest, but technically losing money because of ~3% inflation)

- Sales Engineer
- Design Engineer
- Design Quality Engineer
- Product Training Engineer
- Maintenance Engineer
- Support Engineer
- Security Engineer
- Marine Structures Engineer
- Landscape Engineer
- Transportation Validation Engineer
ps - I ask this from a neutral perspective and do not mean to belittle any job.

Topic: Sleeping
I consider sleeping a hobby.
Some people like to do it more than other and some don't like it all.
Me.
There are sooo many other exciting things I could be doing or learning. Sleep is at the bottom of the list of things that I want to do in my life.
Statistically, people will sleep one-third of their life away. I really would like 20-40 years extra to life the way I choose.
But, I guess science (and my body) says I have to...
For now...

ps - For now, I guess I could also just call it "meditating all night". It is possible to figure out problems and solutions when lying on a bed.

Topic: Electronics Prices
When you buy a product, would you want to know the exact date it was going to break and stop working?
How about this, I'll give you a product for $50 cheaper and give you the exact date it will fail. Nothing to worry about at all. The device will work 100% for until the expiry date. You know when exactly to buy the replacement. If you are satisfied with my product, then I will give you another one with the same condition or probably better.
Do you know of another product like this one? Where you know the exact date it will break or stop working?
Well, it is kind of like a phone contract? You know it will stop working in exactly two years as per the contract.
Ex: Buy a laptop. It could last one year or five years depending on use, care, and lucky quality of device. What if you can get a guarantee that it would work for two years exactly, but then you would have to replace it?
This laptop could be cheaper because manufacturers know people will need to buy a new one, thus more revenue. And the specs will be better in the replacement too. Conclusion? This deal is good for people who have a hard time keeping care of their items. It is a worse deal for people who know how to maintain their products.

Topic: Car Instruments
People play drums on car steering wheels, so why not play the guitar and piano too? It could just be a slip-on cover. Or a clasp for it, around a part of the wheel.
