One thing can be said for a day like Friday is that it certainly motivates me when I’m starting to feel a bit jaded with all the work with no return. I’ve decided to finish off a project that I had the idea for 2 years ago!

It’s called “Hotels for Concerts” and is essentially an extension of Gig Lovers – it’ll be providing concert go-ers with a simple way to find hotels near to venues with price comparison and filtering options on price, distance away from the venue etc.

It’s halfway there with not a lot to do. I’ve just got to organise the feeds a bit better. Hoping it can be up and running within a couple of weeks even if some features are disabled for now – it’ll be worth it to gauge Google’s opinion on it

A new year is a time when we often set ourselves goals and targets.  I’ve one main goal and that’s to DO rather than think.

I think I waste a lot of time looking into possible future projects, checking domain names and thinking about solutions. The thing is I have a lot of all ideas already – I don’t need anymore!  This year the goal is to materialise some of these ideas.

I’ve also realised I need to be more organised in tracking and monthly target setting, which I started doing in November ‘09 with the Gig Lovers ticket tracking.

Although the targets so far have been really low I’ve surpassed all of them so far. I don’t think I’ll be able to reach the January target as I’m a bit behind with the launch of my new site (was aiming for December launch) and I may choose to lower the targets slightly if I miss a couple.
