Creating a PHP application for my employer that will allow us to deploy small 5 page websites for clients quicker than ever. We found we had to turn down a lot of jobs because the money didn't add up to the time required, but this will fix that issue.

I'm readying up a Lisp to PHP compiler for release of the next version. Ideally it'll be done soon today while I add finishing touches to the website and do some final testing.

Working on a Silverlight app for my employer. I inherited this app from previous contractors and some of the stuff they did is pretty scary, so last night was the tipping point and I've decided to start ripping out all the bad stuff. I'm also torn on Silverlight in general and seriously considering rewriting the app from scratch in an HTML framework (debating between Rails and ASP.NET MVC, even if that debate may see…

If you have the flexibility to rewrite the project in Rails, absolutely do it :)
