  It's a personal project that the author didn't expect anyone would ever look at. He's also a journalist, not a software developer. It's an accomplishment that he had the determination to complete his project, even if it is rough around the edges.

    He's a journalist, so I'm sure he expected people would be looking at it. Reasons were probably more due to inexperience and lack of time.
