About

CubicleSoft is a small adventure and hobby of mine. Over the years I've developed a lot of software, none of it particularly successful from a financial perspective. I get up, dust myself off, and try again. And again. And again. I don't have enough fingers and toes to count how many times I've failed.

This is, of course, the story of most software developers out there. And, like most developers, I've got a bunch of random stuff I've developed. Nowadays, I categorize projects as Active, On The Back Burner, Mostly Dead, and Completely Dead.

Active Products/Projects

Active products and projects are what you will see me really fired up about somewhere online. Here is the list of products I am actively developing/maintaining:

I can only really work on one project at a time, although several of the above share common components, thus making upgrading them easier.

Back Burner Products/Projects

These are the projects that I've put on the ol' mental back burner due to not having enough time to work on them.

I've got some great ideas to revive these projects but I'm just one programmer and the enhancements I'd like to see would require huge refactoring of the respective code bases.

Mostly Dead

These projects have almost lost my interest completely. Technology changes and therefore interests change. Someone would have to put serious money in my pocket to get me interested in developing these projects again.

They aren't bad products, it is just I've got to decide what is going to work and what won't work at all.

Completed Dead

These projects are no longer relevant. I had fun developing them but I either found an alternate solution or simply shut them down due to lack of interest.

I've killed off way more projects than this and I'll probably kill off even more before I find something that works.
