iPad 2 Is On Its Way!

This week's greatest news was of course the iPad 2 event on March 2nd.  I was delighted to know that Steve Jobs himself presented the thing, and over all the keynote was quite impressive.  I am definitely to become iOS developer!  I like the fact there will be cameras, more power and the gyro -- those are the things which I'll definitely take into account.

Speaking of programming, it wasn't a big learning week for me, but rather 'settling down' and getting the skills sharpen.  I was also taking a quick break for 3 days to get done with one highly captivating reading, 'Under the Dome' by Stephen King.  Still got one last chapter to read, and I know I'm better to be done with it soon, because this means returning to programming soon as well! :)

Apart from the reading and Apple event, the final touches of the basic redesign were applied to the SimpleBeat web-site.  Now I can concentrate on fine-tuning the minor details and develop the visuals.

Sickness...

Well, it was a tough week for me. First, my close family member got sick. Nothing very serious, just a flu. However, the body temperature and weakness required my immediate attention and help. At first I hoped that I might be able to continue coding, but very soon I found myself unable to concentrate, my thoughts were getting back to what else could I do to ease the pain of suffering little thing. Even when it was quite apparent that the situation is stable, and getting better, I could not bring myself together and stop worrying.

By weekend I got sick myself. It looks like it's not a flu, but rather a light poisoning, since right now I am back to normal. Hopefully the week ahead starts with good news and more coding for me!

Let's start the SimpleBeat

If you're looking for a pretentious foreword, please look elsewhere.  I do not want to create any hype & fuss about this project (and most likely it'll stay this way for good).  So, take a second look at the title of this first post and let's be happy!

On a side note:  everything has its start, and this project has started just now!  It's a 'beta' stage, and in February I hope to have most of the details up and going.
