I plan to release an app for londoners, focused on finding good pubs around tube stations. It's pretty funky: http://dribbble.com/shots/1326115-London-Pub-Crawl-Interacti... Plus I want to play with creating a few games. I have 5-6 simple ideas I'd like to spend a couple of weeks at a time trying out that I'll be putting on my blog at http://danielhough.co.uk

Out of curiosity, what did you use to prototype the interaction?

I enrolled in codepath's iOS bootcamp starting Jan 15th 2014, so I am planning to launch an iOS app in the app store. Not very sure about the app itself. But I am planning to make some sort of utility app for education.

Nice plug. Thanks!

Hope to have it done by the end of the weekend.

I've not yet committed to the project, but I'd like to make a portable raspberryPi server that will connect with nearby, likeminded servers and provide a wifi-mesh for anybody in range. Users on the network should get chat + filesharing services. If I can get that to happen, I'll try to make it battery/solar powered.

I'll be headed over to SudoRoom (Oakland) in the coming weeks to get input on the project. If anybody's interested, please reach out.

I'm working on a freemium SaaS which provides security for WordPress based websites. It remotely scans for vulnerabilites in your wordpress website the same way an attacker would and notifies you. Zero programming knowledge required. No installation required. I need more money for the servers so I'm currently waiting for my Google bug bounty to come through (it's been over 6 weeks!) so I can fund a security startup w…

What kind of bug did you find?

So I should try to come up with the best sounding, longest to implement, but in reality most unprofitable idea and hope you burn 9 months on it?
