MAS o Menos

Yesterday was the 2-year anniversary of my Summer of George. I’ve been asked a few times recently if I will be starting a sequel to Summer of George. Not at this time. When I quit my job back in May 2006, I was burned out. I needed a break. I needed to travel and play.

Today I am eager to work. However, I need to take a break from working for others. For the past decade I’ve been building sand castles. Quality software in the hands of poor management is wasted pixels. When I look back at my web development career which started in 1995, the only thing left standing is my coffee web site INeedCoffee.

INeedCoffee has over 9 years of content, 180 contributors and thousands of daily page views. And it needs a lot of work. The current design was released in April 2003. So for the next few months I will devote all my time to building the new version. I owe to the readers, the contributors and myself. Legacy is more important than a paycheck to me at this time.
