Work on socglue continues...

Well its been awhile since my last post. I have been very busy doing many things. Look for a house, and the masters course at Arizona State University, and working full time pretty much takes up all of my time.

I am working on finishing a few more key items for SocGlue so people will have an interest in it beyond their first visit. So far, it has been a great tool for keeping track of events and life, but I am working on bringing in the interaction with societies into play; One of the main reasons for starting this website.

Besides socglue.com, I took a look at using SOAP with PHP. It makes sense for interfacing with large systems out there that need to maintain a standard for receiving and transmitting data for various programming languages. Although I would say, I still prefer CURL posting over SOAP, the libraries involved are easy to understand and only took a couple minutes to set up a server and client testbed.

As a programmer(and realize, I did software development for 5 or 6 years before getting into web development), I am at a point where I realize that I can program whatever I want, but also know how much work it takes. You can only take on so much work before you need to seek the manpower from others. If anyone out there reads this, is interested in further developing socglue, and knows LAMP architecture and Agile programming, let me know!
