Here we go again.
So, after another long drought of posts, I’ve decided that, because of the position that life is taking me, that I need to become more involved with the development community as a whole. In my case, that means exposing my development abilities to the world, and the best way to do that is to show them off here. I’ve rethemed the blog, and am going to take it more seriously. In addition, I am going to restart the 50 lines of code project, hoping to have something to post here once a day. I will try to, in order to keep the flow of the blog for anyone reading it, keep the 50 lines posts separate from the main page, as soon as I can figure out how to do that in wordpress.
I’ve been looking for work in new locations. I am happy with my current job, in the fact that the people I work with are very skilled at what they do, and their attitude towards things is wonderful. Unfortunately, the actual work I am slated to do has put me in a lower tier than my peers: as an implementations role, I don’t end up writing as much code as I would like.
If anyone has any suggestions as this thing gets more used, I would like to hear them. My current markets I am looking towards are in Seattle, WA, and the surrounding area; Boston, MA and the surrounding area; and the research triangle of VA/NC. Those locations seem to have a much better sense of what is being sought after for developers, and seems to have a greater market for the types of positions that I would like to have.
I guess I need to get myself sold to the world more, and maybe the world would in turn be more open to buying me.

Welcome back, bro!
Hope your 50 lines of code project(s) work out well, and that I can keep up with your pace ^^.
I’ll try to contribute to any code you post, any way I can. If I can’t, I’ll prolly end up writing some sort of bash script (cause I’m weird like that).
less than three, your bro.
If you don’t have a GitHub account yet, I’d suggest that. You can toss up any of the scripts that you put together there for hosting, and also get the ability to do gists, which is how I put in my 50 lines projects here before. It’s a nice system.
