    +

    GTD (aka Getting Things Done)

    I use a light, personal version of it but the idea stays the same. The first thing I do at work is to set up a list of 3 things to do for the day. On Mondays  I set 3 bigger objectives for the week. I never spend much time doing that, as I had loads of time to thing about it since the last time. When working, I also usually always spend some time setting up a set of simple objectives in order to avoid diverging from my final aim. The drawback of this method is that you have to set objectives that are precise enough to be doable in a week/day, but complex enough so that you don't have only a few hours of work. Coupled with Pomodoro, this technique is highly powerful as you can make you tasks fit into 25 minutes time frames.

      After almost ten years without a TV, I finally bought a 101cm Samsung last week-end.

      Not that I feel the need for it that much, but being in the process of learning dutch I thought it might be a valuable tool. See, there are not that many dutch movies out there, so the best way to listen to some nederlands at home is probably national TV :).

      I had no experience at all with media server in the past, and I must say that I am really impressed how well thought the whole thing can be. When adding movies to the library, xbmc will automatically download the subtitles and covers for it. Better than that, it will display them nicely in the background as you browse through your library!

      I stop working about most of my ideas because no one uses them. Because most of the ideas I got in the end come from me. And I don't find much motivation solving my own problems.

      Last week, for the very first time, a friend of mine came with a request. For the very first time, someone asked me to implement something to make their life easier. -The real-time schedule of the bus network of the city they live in is only available on a WINDOWS WIDGET. +The real-time schedule of the bus network of the city they live in is only available on a WINDOWS WIDGET.

A whole city of 150k people, taking the public transports, with no app to warn them about the next bus coming. I worked my arse off, and within 2 days had reverse engineered the widget and developed a really simple android MVP.

      The whole thing was simply based on POST request, so it was just a matter of getting the right parameters to make it work. I have rarely been so productive, driven by the idea that I was sitting on a potential 10k downloads.

      And as I was working, I looked at the public transportation website once again, searching for some information.

      It's been a long time since I have written stuff regularly on this blog. But it doesn't mean nothing happened; far from that in fact!

      For some strange reason, blogging is just like sport : the less you practice the less you want to get back in. Put some holidays in the middle and you quickly end up in a situation where your blog lies dead for weeks even though you have plenty of ideas of articles. And after some time, you don't even have ideas any more; which makes it even more difficult to get back on rails.

      I don't know about you, but thinking about it I can often see a relation between the number of blog posts I write and the progress I make in my pet projects. Just like if blogging was some kind of motivator to work harder, or somehow linked to my productivity as a developer.

So I can officially say that I also created my first web app!

    The concept is really simple:

    Spotify users can share songs via facebook. But I hate facebook, and I hate the facebook integration in other parties even more. The other aternative is a http link. Thing is this link is only playable for spotify customers. And this is boring! So comes spo2tu.be, that takes your spotify url and tranforms it into its best youtube equivalent so that you can share it with your friends without any problem! -I must say I am quite happy with the app, but it seems like I am the only one having this problem because the website had no traction at all, whether it be on hacker news or reddit. +I must say I am quite happy with the app, but it seems like I am the only one having this problem because the website had no traction at all, whether it be on hacker news or reddit. What I am really thrilled about though, is that this was the first time I have scratched my own itch, and not someone else's. Since the app is up, I already used it 4 times a day to share songs. As usual, I tried to do something I had no experience about at all, and it has been quite a mess.

    But let's talk about the way the magic happens

    -Once you enter the spotify web url, spo2tu.be queries spotify's webplayer and extracts the name of the song and the group from the page. I know I could have used the api, but I already had some experience of webscraping with Brestram and I didn't want to query the spotify api a lot with my own customer name. -Once the name of the song is known, I simply query the youtube API and retrieve the most likely candidate. +Once you enter the spotify web url, spo2tu.be queries spotify's webplayer and extracts the name of the song and the group from the page.

Finally, the server sends the results back to the client which display everything to the user. This was the first client/server app I developed from scratch, so I spent quite some time trying to figure out how everything had to work :). -I wanted to get my hands of node for a long time, so this was my requirements for this project (even though Flask would have probably been simpler). -For the client side code, I decided to take backbone as a basis. I wanted something low level, so that I could grasp as much concepts as possible. This is why I decided to avoid meteor, for example. -I use bootstrap for the rendering.

    I thing I said it all.

    The first real difficulty for me was to understand the concepts behind node, and especially the asynchronous programming part. At the very beginning, it even made it difficult to understand the docs, because the prototypes of the methods looked strange! But after a few hours everything started to feel easier. And I was more than happy to let go of the threads and other queues :). -I also had quite a lot of trouble setting up the server environment. I spent hours trying to understand ec2, to finally find my instances destroyed or my security groups lost for no reason (or at least I couldn't find them!).

Backbone and boostrap were easier to handle that I would have expected. Maybe it's not that difficult after all :). If you put everything together, having to learn javascript, REST, css, backbone, node and hosting at the same time was quite challenging. I spent some time in front of a huge pile of knots, trying to understand which string to pull! But the app is finally up, and I hope some people will find it and start using it.

Meetings happen every Saturday from 9 to 12, in a nice coffee place in Amsterdam. The idea is simple : get there, and start coding on your projects. Do what you want.

    Most of the applications that can be performed using satellite imagery cna also be done by other means, such as aerial cameras or even by gathering data from the ground. However, the repeatability, area covered and sheer amount of data made available makes it a very cheap resources for large volumes.
