Aside from my “Pay-The-Bills” job, which is more like an “Almost-Pays-The-Bills” job, I have tons of web projects that I’m working on. I make a very very modest income on my current web work, and I have some projects in the queue to hopefully make some more money. If I could really monetize one of these things, that would be grand. I would LOVE to make a living on the web. I mean, who wouldn’t!? Right?

What projects? Well, for lack of anything better to do, I thought I would share with you my current Dev Queue.

Kid Kazoo - This is kind of a secret project Heidi and I are working on. We don’t want to reveal too much about it until we launch. This one is top priority right now. :)

Top Secret Blog Thing - LOL I forgot this one was Top Top Secret… Anyway, it’s next in the queue. It’s just a standard blog thing, so I have to build up the theme.

Another Top Secret Blog Thing - LOL Too many of these secret secret ones!! Much like the previous. Just a blog theme.

Boatswain’s Call - This is a site I’m being pulled into. Looks like it’s got some real potential, but is in need of a PHP overhaul and host transfer. I’m trying hard to get the other items done so I can start working on this site as I think it will be more involved than my usual theme projects. Sounds very fun!
Tech Spew - This is one of my blog/podcast ideas, and would love to get moving on this, but it’s on the back burner.

Thought Dumpster - I keep meaning to redo this site, and try and get it some traffic. :) LOL

I just love shit like the Flo Control. Other guys dream about project cars and putting on a second story for their house. I dream about computerizing everything from the blinds to the flushing of the toilets. I mean how cool would it be to have a PA system in your house, connected to a voice activated computer that would provide you with all kinds of data and help.

Things like checking if it’s raining, and if it is, not watering the plants. Is it cold inside the house? Check the time and see if the sun is in a good position to allow for natural heating and open the corresponding blinds. Are the lights on in a certain room and there are no humans in that room? Turn off the lights… Shit like that.

As with project cars, you need money to do these things… One day I’ll get to indulge my inner mad-scientist. :)

One of my most favorite project houses is linked here. I can’t wait to get something like this setup at home.

Ok, I’ve had a moment of clarity regarding this project I’ve been working on so long. The gist of it is, I was chasing a chicken… We have a saying around here, “HEY LOOK! A CHICKEN!” It means you’ve got some serious ADD goin on… or something…

Anyway, in other news, Rhys is feeling better and it looks like he might be able to avoid getting tubes in his ears. We will have to wait for the doc visit to know for sure, but here’s to hoping.

LOL I’m just kidding about changing the subject. I’m not that bad. Anyway, I decided to not reinvent the wheel and get back to my initial focus of developing properties, and not programming… If I have to do some programming along the way, great! But the goal is — and should remain — building properties and monetizing them.
