Found the best view for New Year's Eve fireworks on top of my apartment in SF, which overlooks the Bay Bridge and Ferry Building. Now I got to get my camera skills back up to par.

These days I don't know what I'm doing anymore. It seems completely illogical that I'd be on the path I am now given my history. What am I doing just making songs or chasing stocks when I used to make games, movies, entire websites, etc?
Besides the fact I use to play those games when I was younger, being able to form a team and produce something on that scale was something I've always dreamed of doing. It's tough finding finding people of equal or better calibur though and even tougher to find those who share similar ambitions and drive. Like the author, I also learned most of my programming myself (home-brewed), so it's really hard to relate to colleagues who otherwise...[More]
