Happy Monday!

Hello my programming friend. Today was a very successful day at work. Had some difficulties with my combo box cells in datagridview again but managed to find quick solutions to these problems. I have learned over the past few weeks that the amount of code you write in a day is not a good measure of your productivity. What I believe is a better measure of productivity is how much code you are able to eliminate in a day without sacrificing stability or performance. I removed may duplicate entries in my program and was able to solve many bugs by simply organizing my methods and calls better.

As for my personal projects, I installed VB2005 express this evening. I have access to VB2008 professional at work, but I want to be able to distribute my programs legally at home. I am still at a crossroads of what kind of project I will begin to program. My issues are what will be the best representation of my skill as a programmer and what will keep me interested from start to finish. I have learned that it is hard to program when their is no promise of a pay day at the end.

Anyways, I will continue to research various ideas and begin work on a project very shortly. As for my domain website, I will be purchasing a website soon. I have some concerns about which company to use. Some of the unlimited offerings seem very tempting but offer little features. As with the limited space providers I get more important features.

Thank You,

Matthew Cook
