Mine helps travelers find hostels where there are lots of other people staying ( https://hostelhawk.com ). It's been a side project since I started working as a digital nomad over 1.5 years ago and has helped me find sociable hostels to stay in so I never get lonely. Uses Ionic framework + Angular.js. Still very much a work in progress, so any feedback is appreciated!

How does this work? The about button isn't working for me.

My main "side project" lately has been trying to get a job in the engineering side of biotech in the Bay Area. Meeting people is exciting! And part of this has been augmenting my blog [0] with some biology writing.

Other than that I've been helping my Google Summer of Code student with IHaskell [1] – soon we're going to have full widget support, supporting all the same widgets as IPython. Although I don't do most of the coding (the student is quite skilled and incredibly productive) I get the satisfaction of seeing something awesome being implemented for IHaskell!

My model based development tool is currently on hold. The intent is to make something better than Simulink for developing embedded control code. It's actually time to scrap it and start again using the lessons from the first go at it - some fundamentals need to be changed.

Working on a client-side robots.txt validator for a client (nothing public yet).

Still editing the final draft of the novel from my Kickstarter (http://planetoz.net/kickstarter).

Finally created a new personal landing page (http://www.jcholder.com). Still incomplete, but feedback appreciated.

I'm working on several site redesigns so putting my design hat back on after being neck deep in JS is always refreshing.

Also working on building a community site with Telescope on Heroku.

Starting to learn React. As a non-application developer, I'm looking to use this along with Ampersand to create an easy way to create static websites with it. I know, I know, this is not what its meant for, but I like to think outside the box sometimes with these frameworks.

I'm working on a webapp that lets people advertise any arbitrary event going on with google maps integration, and with an eye towards making communication between users easy (commenting, forums, private messaging). I'm not confident that many people would find such an app to be at all useful, but it is simple enough to get my hands dirty in webdev. Will hopefully make my first release by the end of the week.
