Building Renovation

Managed a fair amount of work on the collapsed brick wall. It will be nice to get the air conditioner going again with this near 100 degree weather. It probably wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for the building sitting snug around a bunch of others, at the bottom of a hill, where practically no wind ever hits. Hopefully the AC will be running again this Friday, Monday at the latest.
Once the AC gets the place cooled down I'll be able to begin work on setting up a server. I'm still thinking Daisy CMS will be the one I'll use. The feature set still looks to be the best all in one solution I've been able to find.
  • openSuse
  • DynDNS
  • Sun JDK
  • MySQL
  • Daisy
That should about do it I think. Hopefully it will give me an idea of what load the DSL connection can handle.

Game Creation

The trouble with trying to make a game by one's self is that you end up having to do a lot of different work. Mechanics, programming, world design, background story, web site, community building, hardware, etc, etc, etc.

I've got to figure out how to manage all this stuff so that I still get work done. I also need to keep my expenses as low as possible or else I'll run out of funds before I have a product I can attempt donations against.


Time to get going...
