I had a couple of weeks off recently (parent duty for the school holidays) and spent some of it playing with ideas for a document editor. You can find them under the Dreams link on the right.
I observed about myself a particular flaw in my approach to design. I tend to have grand ideas and try to develop them completely. I often run into difficulties in detail and tend to get bogged down in those details. Instead, I should solve a simple version of the problem and only come back to the more grand scheme once I have more experience with the whole system.
Maybe I will learn from this and not allow "Perfect" to be an enemy of "Good"...
