Things to do this week
Here's my checklist/ to do list for the week to ensure things get done:
Sort out the registration for a .ie project that I'll be involved in. I'm partnering up on this project with someone else and plan on releasing it in August or September. More on this one later...
Get to the bank and sort out the money to pay my company taxes for the second quarter of 2009.
Stop neglecting TopCommentator.com and start making some progress on it. You won't see this on the site but I'll be writing some articles for it behind the scenes. I think I need to move the launch date for Top Commentator to pressurise myself into getting things done!
Discuss other projects that I've partnered up on. I'm already on top of this one as I've been having some pretty good ongoing talks about a few projects that I've teamed up over the last few weeks. I just want to continue this good work and keep the ideas moving forward.
Complete the styling on CallumPhotography.com and hand version 1.00 of the site over to the owner.

Lay down some plans for kicking off my first WordPress plugin to display random images on your blog. There's already plugins there to do this and I'm normally not one for re-inventing the wheel but this is a learning based project to hopefully give me the experience to create more custom ideas later on. I'm pretty confident I can do this, but I want to spend some time on it and make sure it's correct as I'll be trying to get it added to the WordPress plugins directory. I need to specify exactly where I want to take this project. I was thinking about it over the weekend and there's loads of ways I can go to make the plugin as adaptable as possible but I need to set limits to get things done. I know myself from working on previous projects that I might delay things to add in lots of features in search of perfection and to cover all eventualities/scenarios. Sometimes working like this is a good trait and sometimes it's not! For this project I need a version 1.00 spec., I want to keep things simple and I need to work towards getting that done within the next month.
Sort out passwords and ftp details for a couple of sites that I've partnered up on and pass them on to my partner.
Add some more content to RudeVid.com. I've made a start on this one already.
Make a list of things that I want to change on the appearance of this blog. There's things I'm not happy with and I'll want to resolve them and release another version of this blog before the end of the Summer. If I make this list not it sets the wheels in motion.
Spend some time off the computer. I found that I spent loads of time last week on the computer and didn't really get a lot done for the time I spent. If I take a bit more time away I'll be thinking about what I'm getting back to and will become more focused on getting things done fast. One of the reasons for putting this list up here is to focus on changing this this week and getting things done correctly one step at a time.
