2010 – Goals for the year
1 Jan 10
I didn’t make any new year promise to myself. Mostly because there’s nothing more broken than a promise made when welcoming the new year. So, instead of making promises, I’ve made goals that i’ll try to complete and deliver.
#1 – My first iPhone application released
A couple of months ago I beta tested MonoTouch, the .NET framework for the iPhone. It’s a great tool for all of us who doesn’t want to learn Objective-C. After some testing I started to do some actual work for an application. It still needs more work to be functional but at least I have something to go on. I all goes well this will be done somewhat in April.
#2 – Payson Drupal Module
This one is a bit disturbing and embarrasing. For a long time I’ve wanted to make this module for Drupal where you, as a user have the possibility to sponsor sites by paying a small amount of cash using paysons money transaction system. I like Payson, and it really deserves more focus 
. Hopefulle this will come handy to Drupal site administrators. Hopefully this will can be expected in fall of 2010.
#3 – Community Site based on Django
The Swedish Community has for a long time lacked a good community web site for tracking one of the finest things with open source – The great open project that makes whatever disitribution worthy of. It can be all from background search engines like beagle to music players like Listen. All small components that makes the linux experience that great! This should be expected in late 2010.
That’s the three prioritized goals that I have as it is right now. I’ll end this post now to get started .
See you!

It’s been several weeks since I made a post in my blog.
The reason for me beeing inactive is mainly because I’ve had tons of stuff to do at work, and no real spare time, when it comes to my small projects at home.
8-10 weeks ago, me and my girlfriend Andjelka, started to work out, as we used to do before we met eachother.
Lets just say that we’ve had a little too much tv and potatoe chips, without working out the slightest bit. Which can be seen on my BMI / Weight over all.
So, we came to the conclusion that something needs to be done. And here we are . Eight weeks later, we’re working out 3-5 times a week. Which we both find great

Alright. Enough with the private life.
I’ve done a little research on web development. What is better, PHP or Python?
Most people would say PHP as it’s so easy to learn and that it’s so widely used. And say that python is better, since it’s a lot faster than PHP and have tons of complete modules, classes and frameworks.
I tried some of the python projects out. For instance, Django is a really nice python framework. Easy to learn, GREAT setup page and is done with the DRY method. Which keep you as productive as possible .
Another one, that doesn’t seem to be as famous is Tornado web server. Which is used by FriendFeed for example. This one seems to be the fastest one around, and it seems quite simple to take in.
The reason for me checking those things out is that I’ve a little projekt (it might not be considered ”little”) that needs a web server for handling data. I’ll get back to you as soon as I have any good information .
Yeah.. this was a sloppy blog post. I’m sorry. Cu
