Week 8 – iPad
Not a lot to say this week - I spent a lot of time last week looking through the iPad screenshots, looking over the iPad app store before the iPad released. I got my iPad around noon on Saturday and I've been tinkering with it over the weekend, but I need to spend more time really looking through the apps to see what does and doesn't work. This week is probably going to be mostly revisiting the finance app's design and doing some iPad UX experiments. I'm still tentatively targeting the end of the month as the completion date for the app. That being said, I've looked over a lot of the apps already in the store and I'm definitely thinking the finance app will be released "when it's ready" and not on any artificial time table. I'm also going to start entertaining the idea of doing some consulting/contracting...it isn't something I had planned on doing from the start, but I know there is some local interest in it and it would definitely help pay the bills for the time being. That's all for now - nothing terribly exciting this week...just lots of research & testing.
