Codelaide Software sends out virtual “Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year” cards to everybody!
As a little update on what we’ve been up to, our development is currently focusing on a 1.1 release of Lighthouse. It will be a significant feature upgrade. Expect it to come out in January!
In the meantime… Happy Holidays!
Our first product is called Lighthouse. It’s a dynamic port forwarding utility that supports both the NAT/PMP and UPnP protocols (which, translated from nerd-talk, means that it’ll work with your Apple Aiport base station, but also many D-Link, Linksys or Netgear routers from the PC world). And it’s really useful if you want to run server-like applications on your computer behind the NAT router, such as some instant messengers (they act as servers for file-transfers), networked tools like SubEthaEdit, file-sharing programs like Transmission or plain simple servers like a web or ftp server. After all the time we spent with it during our internal beta testing, we already find Lighthouse totally indispensable. Oh, and it has a pretty icon!
