Research Wisely

before you spend money. I spent $50 on code which i don't use. In fact, i researched enough to use code i found for free and use it without any trouble.

What a waste! That's money i could have used for so many other things. The worse part is that i haven't even made a Re off the app that i needed the code for. So what was the point in spending that money then?

Will somebody please take away my credit card??

Ideas, IDeas, idEas!!

For some strange reason, today is a day i am overflowing with ideas to try out and implement. Are they useful? I would like to think so. Are they easy to implement? Heck No! Involves way too much coding for my liking

So what exactly am i doing coming up with these ideas? And why?

Will I ever implement them? I most certainly hope so.

A new domain!

Can't believe i didnt give this a whole post. I mentioned hosting but I never mentioned that i also registered a whole new domain!! That my dear solitary reader, is a big BIGGIE!!

So go on, cheer for me!! I'm certainly enjoying having a new e-mail id :D

Lots of Updates

Its been a while since i last made my post. In that time, i've learned to navigate around Joyent, though i dont think i'm making the most of their offerings. I've partially finished coding(Ha! can you believe it?? I'm coding!!) my study app and it's even gone live. Lots of code to learn here, a lot of it was new(FBML,PHP and MYSQL) but i like to think i've coped well.

Now, while not a lot of the people who've added it have utilised it, i guess i just have to show more patience. Its been only 3days ( I launched on Friday, today is Monday) and i've spent a while today marketing it to people so hopefully the numbers should go up. This btw, is Idea3 that was mentioned below.

I also signed up for and was alloted free hosting on another server. I havent started using that yet but the interface there appears to be more like GoDaddy so i guess it should be easy to use that. That said, took me quite a while to figure out how to work Joyent and i'm really pleased with myself. Especially since its a Solais interface which means i had to SSH/SFTP. That took some getting used to.

I also migrated all my e-mails to Google Apps. Find it very convenient and i love Google apps so it was no-brainer really.

All in all, an extremely useful phase of learning and work.
