Also... thinking of putting together a devil's advocacy site at http://www.PromoterOfTheFaith.com.

The plan for this weekend's project is to finally start on my bergen county .info domains. I own more than 50% of the .info domains for towns in bergen county... and I'd like to organize these sites and analyze their web traffic. This weekend's project will focus on getting a handful of these sites up and running and then we'll take it from there.

Update (201107181620EST): In a word, fail. But the good news is I can re-evaluate and re-align the common infrastructure w/ my goals. My overarching goal is to analyze the traffic - especially since the domains are authoritative in nature. To do this, I'd like to use google's suite of tools including analytics and adsense. Furthermore, because of the large amount of similar domains, I'd like to reuse a common infrastructure w/ global management. Ideally I'd build this custom infrasture myself but that requires more time and effort then I'd like to spend on this hobbyist project. So I decided to go w/ blogengine.net which is written in C#.NET and supports multiple domains w/in one blogging infrasture. However, I may be able to jump on google's sites' technology which is, no doubt, the easiest way to integrate their emails, analytics, and advertising technology and possibly get preferrential search treatment to boot. So my next step is to test google's sites' tools and see if it better fits my needs rather than customizing and hosting a blogengine.net web infrastructure.

For nearly two years, I haven't been able to work on my ideas... and it's tearing at my soul. So starting today, I plan to start a strict regiment of weekend research+development. The idea isn't to complete a project in one weekend but to get multiple balls rolling. So w/o further adieu, here's my list of projects:

1. Wyckoff.info (and friends)
2. Wusic.net (v4 w/ OOB, see wusic.codeplex.com)
3. 13F aggregator and analysis
4. CodAPI (click once deployment API)
5. Preft (simplified to hypothetical portfolios and risk analysis)
6. Prediction market engine
7. Fantasy dodgeball
