I'm working on a website where people can track the artists and bands they like in order to be notified when a new album/EP is released. It's like Songkick or BandsInTown but for albums instead of concerts.
It's still work in progress and I'm also looking for a new website name.

#14I'm playing with home automation/control. I integrated "smart" devices from 6 different vendors into a webapp with voice control that I run on wall-mounted tablets throughout the house [1]. From any room, I can say things like "dim the lights", "lock the front door", "turn up the heat" or "launch netflix on the living room TV". And, because I'm a bit of a Trekkie, the computer talks back. [2]

#15I'm teaching myself Obj-C, one of my apps[1] has made it to the store and whilst I continue to learn, I'll be pushing improvements to it. I've just pushed another app that'll hopefully make it to the store - the simplest QR Code Scanner ever.

#16My group of close friends and I meet up once a week to slay dragons (yes, we are nerds). I was unimpressed by the character sheet offerings available online so I ended up creating my own for fun. It is running on flask, postgres and knockout.

#20My son and I have been working on our hobby site http://CutRateGamer.com for the last two years. We both love PC games and were always on the lookout for great deals.
The site started out as a simple blog, but, being a lazy programmer, manually looking for deals got old quick; so I decided to automate as much as I possibly could. We are at the point were the site almost runs itself.
It has been a great excuse to try out new technology, keep my skills sharp, learn marketing, teach my son programming and what goes into running a website.
Good stuff.
