Projects.

The conference server project I mentioned back in January 2009 went well. I'm now running 12 linux servers each installed with Asterisk (open source PBX, do a Google search if you want to know more..)

I've written quite a few software applications for my company (traffic management and monitoring/reporting.)

As far as personal projects, I'm working on two at the moment. One is a micro-controller based light show for our home Christmas lights. That's turning out pretty good. I'll detail that in another post later.

The second project (and I just started this) is a home display type of thing. I'm working on the first part of it now. I coding a program that creates images (think slides) containing data that you might want displayed in a central place in your home. Data like, current weather, foretasted weather (hourly, daily, weekly, etc.), daily/weekly/monthly calenders, reminders, you name it (eventually it will be a modular design, you can add mods/features as you like.)

The next stage will be the actual display of this data. I've got a few ideas for this, but I'll wait to talk about those when I get to that stage.
