Check out this little thing. It is a countdown widget to the Lowlands festival in Holland. It also parses the lowlands RSS feed.

Stuff has been pretty slow the last year or two. Just working hard at my job as a project manager and trying to get my graduation finished (Just a little 3 year delay… ).

A month or 2 ago I suddenly decided that this was not the way forward. I realized that my job pretty much sucks. The job is too easy, not challenging and not as much into web/tech as I would like. So I decided to quit.

And the timing could not be better. I’ve been working on my graduation in my spare time since October 2008, almost a full year and it’s almost finished now. I honestly believe that I can make a living out of this project and I will be going at it 100%, starting January. Though as long as it’s not paying the bills I will be doing freelance Flash / Web jobs.

It is a pretty tough decision to make, quitting your job in a recession. But I feel like now is my time. And I am going for it.
