What have you done today?

Well, I'm just getting back into this.

I was hot to trot on this in the fall, but I guess it took a back seat during the holidays.

Puzzling.

I'm pretty sure this is a way into a work world that has a lot to offer me. But, I know it's going to take some work for me to get there. So ... today. I checked out a coder on Twitter and followed some of their links to pages, posting the more interesting and useful ones on the right.

 I watched this Youtube video, too





I'm guessing after this, I will look into learning something about C language. I'll chat some time this week with people in the know.

I also took a look at xCode in the App store for my Macbook. My Macbook is a cheap pice of crap, but until now, I didn't need a lot of computing power. I mean, how hard does a laptop have to work to show presentations, word processing and some randow lowneeds programs?

It's a shame that I can't save enough money for a Macbook Pro at the moment ... but that is where I'm afraid I have to go. At least ... at least all of the things I have ever done will work on whatever I get next. I get paid this week, and hopefully things work out with my other "house moving" projects, too.

It's frestrating to know that the next step requires money. It's always comes down to that. Hmm... where to get cheap resources .... where to get cheap resources....

What? Another one?

I'm under the impression that people  - well, a co worker or two- don't like the way I'm doing my job. I'm above all of that.

This is my space to learn about fitness.
To use a metaphor from rugby, I'm picking the ball up and moving forward. With support.

Which, in this case, means I'm moving on. I'm going to learn how to code, and I'm going ot use this blog to bring those diverse elements together.

iTunesU, podcasts, online learning places ... all will be brought together here, as this is what I know what to do.

I take the tools I know how to use and I make new tools. I will use this blog to learn about coding.
