The holidays are here, and it's the perfect time to dive into a project. So spill it. What are you building?

    assuming by "finding" you mean liking. The api makes it very easy to use.

NodeJS article/blog module. Think Ghost.js but more in the form of a module (not only a "package/platform"). I'm really just building it for somewhat selfish reasons; be a portfolio piece, run a portfolio, to speed up a high-traffic blog and to experiment with ways of creating content more efficiently for users (Such as built in infrastructure for adding article templating + web scraping + markdown for text bodies and comments etc.). Ideally I'd love for there to be a way to explicitly modify database structure, easily and predictably, and have it all just work in several SQL dialects, so that you could meld the engine and the admin interface etc. to any project whether it's a blog or not. I feel like most of these bloggy engines make database structure either invisible or too difficult to understand and minipulate. Definitely want to open source it proper, build it to be extendable etc. Don't care about competing with anything else, just want to be another option out there. Nothing all that special but maybe my use-cases will create something that fills a niche.

I just switched to Android from iOs and missed a lot PlainText. It lets you edit any txt sitting in your dropbox (tasks.txt?), with a very smooth sync - you don't have to touch anything to save your edits or to get the latest version from the cloud. Simple and fast, my kind of tool. I searched a lot and gave Google Keep a chance, but it has no API so I can't write on it through Alfred or Terminal. Also the sync is crazy as sometimes takes MINUTES to an updated file appear on my mobile. The dropbox app is not good for my needs too because it requires too many steps to see the updated file - when I start it and the file is already open I need to go back to the files list and get back to the file so it can refresh. So I decided to build it. My surprise was that dropbox supplies the entire code for an app with its API (Notes Example) that's very, very, very similar to PlainText! Two days using and nothing seems to be missing or not functioning well. So no coding, just compiling ;-)

Wrote an app[1] to help Windows tablet users operate push-to-talk apps (like Ventrilo, Mumble, or TeamSpeak) without external hardware. My first time playing with old Win32 GUI stuff, and my first blog entry!

I'm learning Meteor and building a recipe site with it. So far basic features are covered and I'll continue working on UI and more advanced features in the following days.
