2010 and 2011
Originally published on 12/31/2010Looking back at my year in 2010, here are some things that stand out (professionally that is):
Organized my various AS3 classes into library and put it up online at code.johnpolacek.com, with a repo at google code.
Finished the artwork for Missile To The Moon (should be coming out in Spring 2011)
Got published on Activetuts+.
* Rebuilt [johnpolacek.com][1] with my own custom HTML5 WordPress theme* Attended Adobe Max, and wrote about it <a href="http://draftfcblog.com/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=295" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>* Built my first iPhone/Android app, Touch The Trend, and in doing so…* Created my first PHP/MySQL backend* Set up my first cron job</ul>In 2010, I had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted to accomplish and learn. Looking forward to 2011, the picture isn’t as clear. With all the exciting things happening in web development, I probably won’t be undertaking any major comic book projects. The pace of innovation on the web is ever-increasing, so it is a bit difficult to predict what the trends will be and what exactly I’ll be working on. Mobile? Apps? HTML5/CSS3/JavaScript development? Cool Flash stuff? Expanding my PHP and MySQL knowledge? Probably all that and more.
