What are you working on these days?

I just met my co-founder, and we are working out the concept for this product idea I've had for a while, to help with email overload. Lots of fun!

I think I like that idea. Now just add in a kick-ass reputation fixer module and you're set :)

LOL, the spec doesn't cover that I'm afraid, though it would be a killer feature. I can think of various politicians that might want it...

I've been working on an online storefront product that should serve as a great starting point for web developers that need to roll some custom functionality for clients. All text can be multi-lingual, support for complex product options and pricing, multiple storefronts using the same code, and more. nothing to show yet, but more info here http://greaterscope.com

but that's kinda rigid (gotta choose your interest category) ... doesn't do the work of pairing you up with others based on a broad range of interests.
