Let’s face it. Everyone does it at some point in their lives. I did it once and it turned out to actually be a long list and by the end of the year I checked off every single item. Seen as how things go right now I think I should do it again.
If you haven’t figured it out by now: I’m talking about a list of things I’d like to do in 2010.

Here goes!

  1. One of the coolest things I did this year was doing all kinds of experiments. Not only did I learn tons of stuff off that, I also got to pulverize the limits of possibilities I had about a year ago. Ever since I started experimenting the way I did I learned that if I can think it, I can make it.
    Seen as this is 2010, the magic number is 10.
    This year I’ll be creating 10 big experiments (something that really makes me scratch my head) that teach me at least 1 new thing.
  2. For 3 years I’ve been saying it, and goddamn it: This year it’s gonna happen. I’ll get my head around a major AS3 3D engine and start actively using them.
  3. The last few weeks I’ve been looking into RED5/FMS and socket-programming in AS3/PHP. In 2010 I’ll learn how to create serverside applications for real-time Flash clients. I want to be able to do anything: Save every message send to the server in a database, save video streams on the server, serve livestreams (audio/video 1-to-many Flash apps), serve streaming media… You know: anything (from now on referred to as ‘the business‘).
  4. Create a movie and submit it to the local video-wall. (For those of you who don’t know: Kortrijk has a public video wall on the market place. Anyone can submit videos. If they like it they’ll show it on there for some time)
  5. Rewrite Playr from scratch. I’ve learned a lot of new stuff which should enable me to create an even better Playr.
  6. Push out a new version of Dooodl, the Wordpress fun plugin for your visitors.

That’s it!
The 6 things I really want to make happen this year.
Is it too geeky? Should I add some others too? You think I should add some others…
Alright… I’ll add some others… Read the rest of this entry »
