Work and Work
Work has been frustrating me lately. I work with some people who have big ideas and not that much technical knowledge. Well that isn’t the problem more then I have been working on things for multiple departments (outside of my core area) and they seem to all keep coming up with ideas for their respective projects. My boss is a nice guy and likes to please everyone, but that is pushing me towards feature creep hell. Ok, I’m exaggerating, but if you have ever had a job in software development you know the feeling.
On a side note, I’ve been thinking more about the idea of my own software/web related business. I started looking into Code Igniter (codeigniter.com), which is an open source php framework that should help me save time in personal projects. Sure, I have a multitude of ideas, but getting that effort after work or on the weekends to actually accomplish something is difficult.
é ‘å¼µã‚‹ã‚ˆ as they say in Japan (will try my best!).

CodeIgniter is an excellent tool to get your projects done quicker and more efficiently than coding everything from scratch.
I’ve only begun to scratch the surface of CI, (2nd project, 1 month using) but from what I’ve seen the framework do thus far, i have no doubt I could do whatever I could dream.
The documentation for the framework is incredibly complete and the guys on the forums are real pros who get back to a question of yours in less than 4 hours, usually.
Alternatively, you can look at Kohana if you’re into strictly PHP5, but in my experience the documentation for Kohana isn’t nearly as complete compared to CI.
Perhaps I’ve mentioned more than i’ve needed to, but good luck on your experimentation and happy coding!
