Let's get this started

If you can read this then I guess I've set up the DNS records and account settings correctly.



This first post comes to you, as I'm sure many of them will, from my Android device. I hope to use this blog to help with keeping my myriad projects I have in line as well as to keep track of ideas for new projects I'd like to take on once I have some additional room on my plate. I'll keep this short so it doesn't burn through your attention span (and mine). ;p


I like to build things, be them digital or physical. I like to consider myself on the path to becoming a great code ninja. Although I have been trained in the coding arts, as with any great skill, it takes time, effort, and much, much practice to hone those abilities. From time to time I'll take on a project that involves creating something tangible. Those projects are a little more varied than my digital ones. My current list contains items as strange as building a kayak and a couch.


I'll wrap up this post with a brief list of the projects I currently have on my mind.

  • Build a kayak
  • Build a couch
  • Work on ReportFU
  • Play around with Android development
  • Build proof of concept app using Particle framework
  • Build contextual time tracking app (android? web?)
  • Build a new desk
  • Set up LAMP server
  • Learn a new language (spoken)
  • Learn a new language (web)
  • Play around with Mono (the cross platform environment, not the virus)
  • Create and deploy an app to at least 3 different environments

Helpouts, Meetups, and the Mirror-Quickstart

Earlier this week I had my introductory interview with the Helpouts crew to verify the skills that I claim to have and to get an overall feel for how the system works and what to expect from a Helpout. I think the system will be very useful and I look forward to both providing Helpouts and utilizing them to learn new things. I asked if Helpouts would be able to utilize Glass, and at current it does not, but Helpouts hasn't launched yet, so anything can change. I received confirmation that my Helpouts listing has been approved yesterday and that it will be one of the first available when Helpouts goes live. They also said that they would be sending me a few invitation codes for friends and family to practice prior to the launch date, so if any one is interested in helping me practice or if you need any Tech assistance, let me know. Thursday I attended a meetup co-hosted by  +Antonio Zugaldia  of Silica Labs and  +GDG Washington DC . It was informative and interesting....

Ringing in the New Year, New Routine, New Glass

5 days into the new year and my first post of the year. If all goes according to plan, there should be at least 51 additional posts following by this time next year. Hopefully there will be a few more, but I'm learning to keep my goals modest. And speaking of goals, I am now officially 1/3rd through the "Newbie" workout on +LynxFit . I know I've spoken of LynxFit and the work  +Noble Ackerson  and the team at Byte An Atom (no G+ page?) have been doing, and I'm sure you're tired of it by now, so I'll make an effort to only mention it again at milestone markers. This marker being 10 consecutive days of exercise. That is by far a record for me. Up until this point I had kept to a workout routine for  perhaps 3-4 sessions, maybe a week or two before I had to miss a session for one reason or another and once that happened it was a never ending flood of "I can just make up this session tomorrow, or the next day, or the next, etc." With this workou...

Custom URLs, #SecretSanta, and a new Explorer appears

A somewhat slow week, so this post will be a bit shorter than the rest. So this week, yesterday in fact, Google deemed me worthy to receive a custom URL for my Google+ page (http://plus.google.com/+JoshWilson-sohjsolwin in case you're curious). I was not allowed to reserve a simple +JoshWilson like I would have preferred, simply due to it being too common of a name. I was instead forced to append some characters to the end to make it unique. I am not too happy with the result. Being able to select something like /+SohjSolwin would have been preferred to the naming scheme I had to abide by, but in the end, I still got my custom URL and it's still easier to remember and write out than the long number i was assigned before. Now, on to the #SecretSanta. This year, I will be participating in the #GPlusSanta #SecretSanta gift exchange on Google Plus. It's this really awesome thing where you put together an Amazon Wishlist, send it in to the GPlusSanta, and someone may pick yo...
