It’s a new year and that means it is a time for changes, upgrades, resolutions, and new ideas! Last year was an awesome year for me. I completed my undergraduate career and am now waiting for confirmation from my university. I also completed my first major, professional project (nymagic.com) and learned a lot in doing so. In the spirit of resolutions and renewals I have decided to consolidate my sites and really give them a complete revamping. Here is just some of what I am planning to accomplish this year.

jsedlak.org / jsedlak.com Revamp

I have decided to combine jsedlak.com and jsedlak.org into one site, bringing over content from jsedlak.com from previous years. I have also given it a complete redesign and brought over articles from the Focused Games site. Over the course of 2010 I plan to write more articles and blog posts related to XNA and ASP.NET as well as the usual topics. I have added a few pages, cleaned up others and removed the unnecessary ones in an attempt to make the site more useful to visitors.

focusedgames.com

I plan to move the site for Focused Games to an ASP.NET CMS (to be named) and use it primarily as a house for all content related to the Focused Games Framework. One primary feature of which will be a bug/suggestion database for the framework and any other projects I have published.

Cycling

Last year was my first year getting into the sport and I managed three centuries and a total of over 4200 miles. Unfortunately I do not believe I can top that this year but I am sure going to try. I have already been out once and plan to get out a lot more in January. The other cycling thing I did last year was enter some races. I definitely plan to do this again and beat my previous times, but work may get in the way.
