I haven't stayed on top of this blog because I've been so busy with so many different things that taking time to write a post seems to be far down on the priority list.  I'm not going to say that will change this year, because that's almost cliche, but some of the things on my goal list will naturally lead to some posts here.

CodeMash

CodeMash v2.0.0.8 was awesome.  There have already been so many other blog posts talking about how great it was, so I'm not going to go into detail.  I'll sum it up by saying that it was totally worth it, and I'd be insane to miss it next year.

Resolutions

I have some goals for 2008, but really only one resolution.  My resolution is to do the push-up a day challenge.  But I decided to also do a sit-up per day, and throw in jumping jacks to toss in some cardio.  Today I've done 20 of each.  As the year moves on and things get harder, I may have to only do the exercises every other day, in order to give my muscles a chance to recover.


Goals for 2008
  • Present at at least 2 technical user groups
  • Write at least 2 articles for established websites
  • Contribute to a well known open source project
  • Create a fun game in Silverlight and host it at CodePlex
  • Create a custom layout for this blog and port it to SubText

Wow, that's a lot, but I already have one user group talk scheduled.  Should be a fun year.

I finally got around to setting up my dasBlog blog on my new site.  I just got done importing my blogger posts to this blog using Nick Schweitzer's walkthrough.

There are a few kinks to work out, such as getting a configuration error whenever I try to view comments on old posts.  Also, the config error page is prompting for log in since it's in a directory that I don't allow access to.

I also want to find a better template and get around to personalizing it.  I think I'm going to try implmenting parts of the template in Silverlight.

UPDATE - I set up FeedBurner for my feed.  Until I set up my template with a better link, here's the link - http://feeds.feedburner.com/ProgramWithDotNet

My first goal on 43 Things was to create a blog, so here we are. I'm planning on using this blog to post topics about software development, but I may sneak in something personal every now and then. Now it's time to change that goal to something like "don't let your blog stagnate."
