QR Codes and Stuff!?!

Welcome back my 5 loyal readers. Things have been busy on my end.

Decodeforme.com launched and has been a mixed bag of nuts. I have had a few inquires but nothing too serious as of yet. The biggest issue so far has been getting people to understand what QR Codes can be used for. This comes to some surprise as I now see them every where I look.

My son’s web site is still in the planing stages but that has alot to do with me having to continue to do mass amounts of freelance work after hours. Hopefully that will be coming to an end soon and I will be rocking it old school with some ASP Classic. Not sure what I would do with all of my extra time though. More details to come in that in the next few weeks.

The biggest project that I have now is the complete rebuild for Ontrix.com. It will be WordPress based and have a few custom plugins to help support multiple authors and create niche mini-sites. Should be pretty slick when done. The Owner even said I could sell the plugins on Code Canyon once they are done so hopefully that will bring in some extra cash.

Other then that I have been furthering my education in Database Normalization and Design. It’s a pretty fascinating subject and not too hard to get a grasp on. Some of the things I have read about I have been doing for years now but never knew what the processes were called. Better to dive in head first then be scared off by the big, bad, scary programming name and never try. Chalk that up to some good teachers through out the years (thanks Vern and the original Laurel Springs IT Department)!

Well I guess that’s it for now. I will try to start posting on a some what weekly basis so there is at least some reason to come back. Maybe actually write an article or two instead of using this as a journal. Probably not but it’s a thought.
