enaWare, family

Summary:

  • Turned 25. This getting old thing can stop now.
  • Found a place to live in Omaha. It’s real nice. I’ll be headed back over there in a couple weeks, if I remember I’ll bring my camera and take pictures.
  • Wrote some real code for the first time in several weeks. Finally worked through a problem in StudioMan that had been stumping me for awhile. Starting writing code for the scheduling algorithm.
  • Picked up Super Smash Bros. Brawl (well, I guess that was more the week before) and Guitar Hero III. Spent far too much time playing both.

Introducing… enaWare posted at 11:35 PM
StudioMan, computers, enaWare

So, after I got started working on a couple more projects, I decided I wanted a brand to keep them under. You know, in case I hit it big or something.

Hey, you in the back: quit laughing.

I’m working on a website, which is taking valuable time away from the stuff that’s actually going to go on it, but I don’t care. Cuz I’m awful like that. Everybody needs a distraction, right?

You all already know about StudioMan (which was progressing along nicely UNTIL JOHN GOT ME STARTED ON PACKAGING UP THE CALENDAR VIEW… er… hehe. So yeah. That’s become a nice little project in and of itself.). I have two other things in the works:

ChocoMUD, a scriptable MUD client. I’ve actually chosen to write this one in Java for cross-compatibility reasons, and to keep myself learned up in a language that actually Matters™ out there in the real world. We’re really spoiled as Cocoa programmers… Swing is a real pain, although the new Swing Application Framework and NetBeans really help.

And finally, an unnamed application for iPhone, which will really just be a simple metronome with visual and aural feedback. I may end up charging a little bit for this one just to cover the costs of the developer license *grumble*

So yes. This is what I’ve been up to for the past couple months. Outside of the job hunt, that is.
