  1. I'm headed to England, so I probably won't be posting on here for a little while. Should be back in early June.

  2. Recently completed a quick personal web app for keeping track of personal daily tasks. It's not super complicated, but it's exciting to be able to use my web skills to make my own life easier.

      Well, here's a quick screenshot: http://falkendev.com/downloads/calendar.gif

       

      Basically, it allows me to keep track of simple tasks that I need to do on a daily basis. If I complete all the tasks in a day, the background of the table cell for that day turns green.

       

      I've set it up as the default page that appears when I open a browser/open a new tab, so I should see it often. I'm hoping that it will help me establish good habits and remember to do the small thin...

  3. Just posted a new video screencast series on LESS, a CSS preprocessor that adds some powerful new functionality to how CSS is written. Take a look: http://www.killersites.com/video-library/

  4. Back to working on some KillerSites screencasts!

  5. I may be around the forums a little less... I've just been super busy recently, and I have to try and prioritize my time at the moment.

      I feel ya! Hope all is well!

      Yeah, I'm fine, just super busy with work/school/family stuff. Things should slow down in 3 or 4 weeks when I'm finished with another semester of college, but till then I have to be a bit more careful with my time.

       

      Glad to see you're back again! Hope things are going well for you. =)

      So just in time for the holiday rush... lol! Lucky you! I am "around" and pop in to see how things are going but y'all are so on top of things I am rarely needed. Though I did find one that was right up my alley so I was able to help. *grin*

       

  6. Just came across a 100+ free Stanford video course on creating web apps. Looks incredibly useful, especially the more advanced topics: http://openclassroom.stanford.edu/MainFolder/CoursePage.php?course=WebApplications

  7. Just started a class at my college in iOS development. Hopefully, when the course is over (4ish months from now?) I'll have a strong enough foundation in the Objective-C language that I can actually charge for mobile app development services.

  8. Printing a set of letterpress business cards as part of a revised branding campaign for my freelance business. I'll have to post pictures once they are complete.

  9. Just launched: a custom LightCMS powered ecommerce store for Wild Ink Press, a Chico CA letterpress studio. http://bit.ly/qjuJyP

  10. New Wordpress based website launched for Southern California based 2Edge Performance: http://bit.ly/qcepkS

  11. Just emailed my resignation letter to the company I currently work for giving them a few weeks to find someone new. Full time freelancing, here I come! (starting Aug 26th)

      Thanks! I'm hoping it will give me more flexibility, and free up some time to work on more interesting/fun projects.

      Ben I have no doubt that you will be successful. You are a wealth of knowledge.

      Good luck, I will keep you in mind, the group I work with sometimes needs programming work

  12. Decided to drop my part time web coding job and go freelance full time starting in early September. Excited for some new opportunites (and perhaps the chance to do more KillerSites related screencasts and such.)

      Good luck Ben... hope you stay with Killer Sites. You have already been an immense resource for me. Best wished for the future.

      I'll definitely be continuing to work with KillerSites as long as I have the time and Stefan still wants to work with me. =) I can't see that changing anytime soon.

  13. Putting a propery RAID storage solution in place in order to get a bit more serious about data backup/protection.

  14. Working on my first site built with Concrete5 CMS. It has its quirks, but I'm very impressed so far.

      For CMS sites that don't require the blog functionality/flexibility of Wordpress, it seems to be an excellent choice so far.

  15. Playing with Google+. I'm not sure if I need another social network to keep track of, but I like it significantly better than Facebook so far. The "circles" idea is well done, and the ui/design is well thought out.

      Can i get an invite into it please?

  16. Working with Git for the first time. Guess I have to suck it up get used to the command line... (as a designer, I like my GUIs)

  17. Working on maybe the biggest web development I've been in charge of. Should be fun, and give me a chance to dive back into CodeIgniter.

  18. Less than 300 posts away from being the 2nd highest poster on the forum.

      So who is Number 1?

      LSW is highest with some 7000+ posts (I'm not going to pass him anytime soon.) Andrea is currently second.

  19. I'm back from my trip... Busy catching up on emails/PMs/etc.

  20. I'm off to Costa Rica for about a week. First vacation in a while... If anyone PMs/emails me, I'll respond when I return.
