Searching for a project

So i havnt yet fully nutted out a project to do as part of the AUC student scholarship. At first i was going to do something access grid related, but since a mac version is already being worked on i figure ill take a step back and find something else to do.

Ive asked around here at uni and sent messages to a few mailing lists asking mac users what they think is missing but as yet i havnt got any response.

Ive got a few ideas, and im sure ill get one sorted soon enough.

Ive done some work with tiger and core data, i think spending time learning the new technologies is a good part of the scholorship. It can only make my final app better. Ive decided to use the tiger technologies which means it wont work on systems lower then 10.4, but the cool new stuff in tiger is too good to leave out.

So yeah, thats basically what i wwrote in my progress report. I feel good about my progress so far :)

AUC Scholarship Progress Report

Got to work today and did up my progress report that we have to do as part of the student scholarships.

Also gave me a chance to play around with making stuff look pretty using pages. It was fun. I got a bit frustrated at the start but once i figured out how to use the layout options it went ok.

Just got a few things to fix up and ill mail it off :)

Mount Jim Crow

The climb was really fun. Theres a kind of rough walking track all the way up, but it gets rough in some places and you do actually have to climb.

The other cool thing is there are multiple paths up, so you could pick which way to go depending on how game you were.

All up it was great fun. :)
