Goals for the year

Posted by chris on December 31st, 2009 Comments(0)

What are your goals for the year. We all like to make resolutions, I’ll just make goals, that way I don’t feel bad if I don’t make them. In no particular order I’ll list some goals I want to accomplish this year:

Become Zend Certified
I read over the certification guide and I am confident I could pass 80% of the test, it will look good on a resume (and for this site), and will just be kinda cool to say “yeah, I’m Zend Certified.”

Redesign Cnizz.com
Yup it could use a more modern personalized look. Same with this blog, but I won’t worry about that for a while.

Spend less
I went over my expenses and I have way too much frivolous spending. I’d like to cut this rampant expenditures by $100.00 per month and put that money in my savings account.

Get my side projects up
I have two of them. One is a lead generation site and the other is helping my friends with their online retail site.

Pay Off Debt
Luckily I don’t have a lot, just student loans and a car loan, but I would really like to pay off (or at least make a huge dent) in my car loan.

Take Guitar Lessons
I have an old acoustic, but don’t know many songs or chords. Would love to be able to play it more often.

How about you?

MooTools Table Sorter added to MooTools Plugin Repo

Posted by chris on December 23rd, 2009 Comments(0)

I’ve added my mootools table sorter to the newly created plugin repo created by mootools called, mootools forge. I’ll be enhancing the documentation over the holidays and adding much needed updates to the code. If you’re a mootools user or have been thinking about using mootools this is a huge step forward for the team over at mootools. The plugin site is much better than JQuery’s.

I’m also on twitter now.
