Week 66
17 January 2014Pulled in lots of directions this week:
- A day wrapping up the month’s work on Contributoria/Haddington, laying the foundations for Dan’s work for the rest of the month.
- Paying my tax bill.
- Various meetings and lunches with friends, about interactive theatre and games culture, which were a nice tickle for the brain.
- Wrapping up a final set of bugfixes on Seager, which led to the startling discovery that 3G connectivity providers may will strip websockets from port 80 because of their lousy proxies – we lost some time to that one.
- A day of workshopping for the BBC on a project that I’m calling Botley for my references.
Fun, though: two concrete days at either end, and lots of little bits in the middle, tidying up and poking some other bits of technology in my spare time. One potential project has fallen through for the time being, though thankfully this isn’t too much of an issue; a couple of speaking engagements have emerged. Lots of focuses, then, but a solid week. One more like that, and then I’m heading to the hills for a week’s R&R.
