Upgrade Your Boardmaker!

The newest upload to Boardmaker is available online at the Mayer-Johnson site (or if you use Windows go to Start -> All Programs -> Mayer-Johnson -> Check for Updates on your desktop).

This update has one very cool feature, it let's buttons on boards connect to websites online. Check out Yuichi's Blog to see how.

Yuichi's Games

Yuichi's Games is an add-on to Boardmaker Plus and Boardmaker SDP. From what I understand it is one heck of an add on, it is completely switch (and touchscreen, and head/eye tracker) accessible games. Nine games for sixty dollars. I put in my order with my $300-500 of materials I was allowed to order with my classroom budget last May, so hopefully the disk is waiting for me on September 2nd.

Yuichi's Games is also Yuicihi's wonderful new blog. Yuichi is now an employee of Mayer-Johnson doing full time development for them. If you are a member of the Boardmaker Yahoo Group (or QIAT or someother listservs) you know Yuichi from his postings. Yuichi's blog brings some of his postings to life explaining some of the more complicated, advanced features of Boardmaker Plus or SDP with tutorials and videos. I can't wait to go install youtube videos into Boardmaker Plus Boards.

Just think I can make it so I will not have to activate a music video of Mambo No. Five or Who Let the Dogs Out as a reward, Boardmaker Plus can do it for me!
