WordPress and Stuff
Project X has been named, SnapFoo.com! We are well into the development stage of creating SnapFoo.com. I know there are still many programming nights ahead, but I feel really strongly about this new project. My lips are still sealed on any specifics, but there will be more info to come soon.

I’ve been watching Startup Weekend today. The concept is simple – lock a bunch of geeks in a room for an entire weekend and develop a new startup company. They’ve been broadcasting live all weekend on Ustream.tv. It’s pretty amazing what a few geeks in a room can accomplish. Imagine the possibilities if my programming crew were local!
There’s a new Web 2.0 site in town and their name is Pownce.com. 
What is Pownce you ask? In their own words:
Pownce is a way to send stuff to your friends
Simple enough right? Well sort of. Pownce is basically Twitter 2.0, allowing you to send just about anything: music, photos, messages, links, events, and more.
Pownce is the new start-up from internet wiz Kevin Rose and friends. To sign-up you must receive an invite from a current member. This seems to be the new way to launch web 2.0 sites, but I kind of like the invitation system.
I haven’t had a chance to explore Pownce completely, but once I do I will offer a full write-up on my experiences using the new site.

Why am I do this you ask? Good question. I really have no idea why or what I hope to accomplish, but I am enjoying it so why not?!
On a side note I’m going to make it a point to blog daily! I’ve been slacking lately.
4th of July fell on a Wednesday this year. Blah!
Holidays during the week always end up sucking! It’s hard to go out and have a good time knowing you have to be at work bright and early in the morning. I did manage to see some fireworks in the neighborhood, but didn’t catch any of the big shows.
We did have a really nice cookout at work on Tuesday, so at least I can say I did go to a cookout and had a hot dog! I’m already looking forward to next year. The 4th of July falls on a Friday in 2008!
Friday + July 4th = Good Times!
