My ‘Time’ Wishlist

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

Do you have any geeky / creative things you’d do if only had the time and the money time?

The idea for this post came about when I was setting up this blog.  For once, I had the time and the need to build a WordPress site (we’ll be migrating our Spoken Whirred blog to WordPress and I needed a site to test with).

 Cross one of the ole geek checklist.

1. Setup a wordpress site

What’s left on my geek checklist? Let’s see (off the top of my head):

2. Build a web site / application in Ruby on Rails
3. Build a facebook application
4. Use Objective C or Cocoa (for a Mac app or iPhone) – (This one is totally unrealistic, because I’ll never have this much time)
5. Use more jQuery / AJAX
6. Help bring about the destruction of IE6.

Another wish list I have applies to more creative tasks:

1. Take a photography class
2. Learn how to use Illustrator better
3. Actually use tags on my stock photo library so I can easily refer to them.
4. Learn another movie making software (besides iMovie)
5. Actually have the time to make some movies of Gabe.

What’s on your wish list?  Would any of these apply?  Should I store this list on 37things so I can keep track of these?

A new blog

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

Hello. This blog has been moved and repurposed. After merging Creative Reason to form Spoke this blog has been underutilized. I’m trying to correct that… From henceforth, Creative Reason will serve as my personal blog. This URL remains appropriate because it’s my name on Twitter, plus I like the name for the same reasons when I chose it for my business: I try to combine logic with creativity and make them work together.

Speaking of technology, this blog is now using Word Press, complete with a theme I’ve customized to use the old Creative Reason logo. I hope you like it, I’ve sure liked using Word Press thus far. I’ve imported all of my old posts from the old blog in here, but they don’t have Tags, so unless I get some free time, the categories will need to be used for old posts, tags for new.

As for where I’ll post what, here I will focus on posting personal insights, family updates, and anything that strikes me as important.  Typical personal blog stuff… I’ll also continue to post at the Spoke, Spoken Whirred blog (which I’ll be migrating to Word Press soon also) and my “important” posts will be posted in both spots. Hope you enjoy the blog!
