My Projects

I am planning on running five projects over the next year. Each of these projects must:

  • Have an expected value > $0.
  • Not rely solely on advertising revenue.
  • Involve technologies and/or techniques that I'm interested in.
  • Be entirely software based.
  • Not exceed 20K Lines of Code (LoC).
  • Incorporate only free (as in beer) components.

Right now, I am actively developing one project and I only have vague ideas for the other four. Below is the project list as of August, 2009:

  1. Twitter Application
    • E(X)=$7,200
    • development stage
    • PHP, Apache, BDB
  2. Bio Application
    • E(X)=$2,400
    • ideation stage
    • PHP and/or R, Virtuoso or 4store
  3. Netflix Prize 2
    • E(X)=$193
    • waiting stage
    • R
