Ten minutes ago, I released Printer Friendly 1.4

From the customer perspective, there aren’t any new features, but the main algorithm has been optimized and streamlined. Customers should see better Printer Friendly results on ‘weird’ pages. It’s getting harder and harder to optimize this algorithm — web design is getting more and more complicated, and the only thing the algorithm gets is the raw HTML source of the page…YOU try figuring out what to toss aside and what to keep without any contextual data.

From the MicroISV perspective, I upgraded the price to $15. It’s absolutely impossible to even break even at the old price of $12.95. I also added the “BUY” button into the application itself to make it super-easy for users to pick up the full version. And, to appease certain concerns, all those who pick up a copy of Printer Friendly 1.4 will receive free upgrades until 2008.
