Best Laid Plans

So minimal posting this week cause I’ve been hit with the cold/flu/sinus-torture-from-hell :( I did get some design done on the two projects I’ve had rattling around in my head for the last few weeks and months.  Only problem was, when I really thought about it, they are both kinda silly and pointless.

  • My idea for a memory capture (ie: put in memories of your past) is, I realized, essentially a blog with a better way of adding by date (fuzzy dates).  Really, just a blog.  Do I want to end up re-writing wordpress or movable type again, poorly?
  • The ruby-idioms site that I spoke about a while ago appears to have been written already over at http://readmycode.org.  While I applaud the author for getting the site out in 24 hours, he also basically created what I wanted to.  Grrr…..

Now, that’s not to say that I don’t have passion for the projects, and definitely doesn’t mean I won’t still do them (nothing says you can’t create something if it exists already).  Shows the dangers of not committing and waiting, instead of getting stuff done NOW.

Guess it’s just a bummer to get to the realization that my fantastic ideas maybe aren’t that wonderful…. Bleah.

Anyway, keep on coding out there, got some ideas here for some hopefully interesting posts coming up next week as I get better and closer to upright!
