Well happy 2007 everybody. Each year I go through the same dilemma. Should I make any New Year’s resolutions. As years go I by I get less and less minded to do as I’ve been concentrating a lot more on enjoying the moment rather than planning for the future. Still, what the hell, here’s some of my geekier wishes for the year ahead.
- Learn Gaelic, I’d like to know enough to understand what singers are saying at the Mod (I’ve had two abortive attempts at this already, third time lucky?)
- Write a native app for the Mac using Carbon and Objective-C, even a Hello World will do.
- Build a feed management tool in Java
- Provide a comprehensive stats website for the Scottish Parliament elections in May
- Relaunch Quine Online, yes I know, I know, could have said that every year for the last decade but there’s been real progress this year but there’s nothing visible to show for it yet. I’ve spent a lot of the last quarter doing boring consolidation of my domain portfolio of over 30 names, sorting out new hosting arrangements, separating friends and family sites from Quine infrastructure, tidying up many project sites from over 10 years on the web with different technologies hasn’t been simple.
- Been working on some fun projects with my pal Katie Meldrum, hope these make her dulcet tones known around the world.
