Wow where did the time go?
I hate to use the old cliche “I’ve been to busy” to write, especially since I used that several months ago, but it’s a correct assessment of what’s been going on. Even as I write this I feel extremely guilty for taking the time away from Zookoda and SocialSpark.
Literally two months up to PostieCon we worked 12 to 16 hour day, even on weekends. Just before PostieCon however a major crisis happened to Zookoda that required immediate attention. At the time we didn’t have a ColdFusion developer to handle the situations. Being that I had worked a little with ColdFusion years before I volunteered to look at the problem.
Well a “problem” turned into problems so my typical day since PostieCon has been wake at 3:00am and work on Zookoda till 9:00 am. 9 to 6pm is SocialSpark with 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. It’s a tough day, but in the 2 months that I’ve worked on Zookoda it’s stabilizing. Come the third week of January time should really open up.
So if you’re checking in I appriciate it, however have no updates on cakePHP at the moment. Other than it was shot down as an alternative to Ruby On Rails for building the smaller ancilary sites for IZEA. It really is a shame that some people don’t view PHP as an object oriented language due to the sloppy programming of others. On the other hand the decision to go with Python for the back end work is something I am eager to work with.
So here it is four (five?)Â months later when we really ramped up building SocialSpark and when the time requirements dropped after PostieCon I kept it going with SocialSpark and Zookoda. All I can think of at the moment is “Two great tastes that don’t go together.” It’s all good though as both are worth it.
So if I don’t get the opportunity to post again for the remainder of this year I wish you a safe and happy holidays! As my new years resolution I promise to post more, especially about JavaScript. Of which I had actually started to write a booklette on the subject but…
Happy Holidays.
