Building Websites
I've been getting asked to make websites for people lately. At first I wasn't going to do this because I didn't want to get into a cycle of maintenance on a bunch of websites. But a recent client of mine convinced me to do a website for her choir and it was actually fun. It has been a while since I had that kind of fun doing something like this.
It also makes me want to work on those other Web projects I've wanted to do for a while. I avoided starting these for a long time, but now I'm motivated to work on them. I think I'll just work on them whenever I have slack time (in between jobs).
What are these projects? Well here's the really short list:
The Friday Gamers Website - Really this is Ken's idea, but we should probably get it done soon. It's basically a website for and about our gaming group.
A website about books - I recently ran into a situation where I was trying to remember the name of a book (I couldn't even remember the name of the author. I could only remember some details about the story). I looked at many websites on books and was kind of surprised and the very superficial nature of them. I expected to find something like Boardgamegeek, but didn't. So I thought it would be interesting to design something better than what is already out there.
Egress - a secret project. I conceived this idea a couple of years ago and have wanted to produce it since. Those in the know already know what it is.
