St. Patrick’s Day Bingo Cards

Sunday, March 2nd, 2008

There are just over two weeks until St. Paddy’s Day 2008.  To celebrate the day when everyone wants to be Irish, we’ve just created our St. Patrick’s day themed bingo cards template.

As always, entry level use of print-bingo.com is free. You can get access to every feature of our excellent bingo card generating site for only $10!

Blank Bingo Cards and Easier Sharing

Saturday, February 16th, 2008

A few new little features for print-bingo.com today.

First, we’ve shortened the “email design” web addresses, and made them easier to use in blogs and forum posts.  This saves a few steps for our users share their bingo card designs on blogs, forums, and websites.

We know a lot of great bingo designs have been made with our site, and hopefully we’ve made it easier to share that great work.

We used that new feature to create a couple custom bingo designs that clean up a few small features that have been requested in the past:

  •  Blank bingo cards we just tricked our generator with spaces to let users create blank cards for class exercises.
  • Customizable numeric bingo cards are regular numbered cards with slight changes, e.g. changing the free cell text or the column headers.  This of course users were able to do on their own, but this link saves them a few minutes.

That’s it for today.

Have a good one!

Easter Bingo Cards

Friday, February 15th, 2008

In our continuing series of special event bingo cards available from our web based bingo card generator, print-bingo.com, I’m posting about our Easter Themed Bingo Cards. Our Easter word list is only a starting point for your custom bingo card design. You are encouraged to add or subtract words in the design to get the bingo sheets that are perfect for your needs.

Basic use of our bingo card generator is free! Those who want every bingo design feature that we have available can upgrade for only $10.

BTW: Sorry, we don’t have a custom bingo design for President’s Day, which is next Monday, the 18th of February, 2008, in the USA.  However, if you happen to use print-bingo.com to create one, please email us a copy of the design.  We’d love to share it.

Serialized Bingo Cards!

Thursday, February 14th, 2008

The best web based bingo card generator on the web is a bit better today.  We launched yet another feature to print-bingo.com, custom bingo cards with serial numbers!

We’re pretty sure this feature does not exist on any other web based bingo card generators.  We don’t follow the feature set of our “download and install” competitors, so we can’t say if serial numbers are available at all in that segment of the custom bingo card software market either.

Anyway, to the theory:  One of the weaknesses of printing your own bingo cards is the potential for anyone to visit print-bingo.com to generate unofficial cards to your friendly game.  Before today, our only suggestions for better security were to use special paper or letterhead that would be difficult to copy without prior notice.

To see what we’ve done now, view a sample of our new serialized bingo cards that use our buzzword bingo template and our newish 1 card per page format.  You’ll notice that we not only provide a sequential serial number that is tracked with our user accounts, but we also add a random string component.  Of course, serial numbers aren’t any use if you have no way of knowing if they’re proper numbers, so we add a master list at the end of the document.  See page 6 of the sample PDF in the previous link.

There are a few good uses for the new serial numbered bingo boards.  The sequential number is generally useful for organizing purposes.  The random section is useful for security and uniqueness.

As a reminder, we explicitly forbid the use of print-bingo.com for illegal gaming purposes in our Terms of Service.   If you choose to use our site, you take full responsibility.

Anyway, have at it, at print-bingo.com.

Valentine’s Day Bingo Cards

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Another day, another occasion. Valentines Day, February 14th, is coming soon.

I’ve just looked at our website access logs for print-bingo.com, our web based bingo card creator, and I was surprised to see the number of people who are already searching the web for “valentine bingo” or “valentine’s bingo”.

We are continuing our series of blog posts about our great word lists. Here is a link to our template word list for Valentine’s Day Bingo Cards. It also serves as a great all-around word list for other word exercises that you have in mind.

As always, printing a few cards from print-bingo.com is absolutely free. Though, for some extra features, you’re encouraged to upgrade to a Premium account.
