Find People to Follow on Twitter
I’ve been on Twitter for a few years, but it’s been an “off-and-on” relationship. I’ll jump in every so often, leave a few posts, and then lose interest, especially after scrolling through masses of mindless content. While I of course have a Twitter account worthy of following, finding others like me has always been a […]
Read MoreAn RSS Reader With Filters
I’ve been using my RSS Aggregator for several years to follow websites that interest me, but I’ve also used it to find new projects and work opportunities by having it automatically search and compile job postings from craigslist and other job boards. In both of these cases, but especially the latter, there can be quite […]
Read MoreUsing An RSS Reader to Find Me Freelance and Contract Jobs
Since this is my second time being a freelance/contract worker, it’s my goal to eliminate, or at least reduce the impacts of the feast-famine cycle that seems to be pretty common in this world of being your own boss (or perhaps more accurately, the manager of multiple bosses).

The other direction is to just create a product that meets one of your needs, with the assumption that there are others out […]
Read MoreMy Budgetting App Mockup
For the past year or so, we have been using a simple little budgetting app that I made to track our spending throughout the month. I decided to start making it a little prettier: Basically, you give the app a monthly spending goal. It works best if this is just the non-recurring expenditures — money […]
Read MoreIs Failing Fast the Best Option?
There is a concept out there, which I think I agree with, that says to fail fast, and fail often. Basically try ideas out quickly, and if it doesn’t look like it’s going to work out, then move onto the next thing. It sounds good, but I wonder how many good ideas could have been […]
Read MoreStrymr Design Updates
Strymr is my blog post, video and news aggregator website (hopefully soon it will pull even more types of media). It has been an ongoing project for several years, and it\’s been neglected for about that long. I have been thinking of some pretty big things for the site recently however, and I felt that an updated […]
