Well today I gave my one week notice at the day job. Starting on the 1st of June, I'm a free man. I'll be working for them on a contractor basis, but I'll no longer be there 8 hours a day, free to concentrate on my own work.

You know what that means right? My blog app might actually get finished...

Yuh right :-D

Just got done with another few days in the recording booth at Lynda.com recording Dreamweaver MX 2004 Databases with ASP (talk about a long title). Hopefully it should be hitting the online movie library in a few weeks :) (make me look good now editors...)

That's right, you can now reach this wonderful blog (full of powerful insight on so very many meaningful and important things) by going to DansShorts.com. aaaaaahhh... my own vanity domain... almost as good as a vanity license plate.

Yes, I am still alive, but I've become somewhat of a social butterfly it seems, plus publishers don't think authors have lives :) (can you say major deadline over 4th of July weekend? I can...)

There are some exciting things on the horizon though, including one day getting this damn blog application finished :), as well as a few other super-ultra-hot-damn-top-secret projects that I can't tell you about. NO SECRETS FER YOU!!!

I've added RFC compatible pubDates to all my posts in the RSS feed. I've also got code wrapped up for converting server times to the desired time zone of the poster, I just need to integrate it into the actual blog app and do some more testing. One more feature halfway done :)
