My Projects

I have a few ongoing projects that may be of interest to you. I will provide links to actual programs as I make official releases.

Timecard
I wrote this to track the time I spend at work, but naturally it's not limited to that use. Future plans for the program include a nice graphical interface and possibly a configurable storage backend, which could, for example, allow the program to transfer the entered data into a database. Other suggestions are very welcome as well.
Perl templating engine, AKA PHPSucks.pm
A friend has pointed me to an absolutely wonderful templating engine for PHP called Smarty. He admits that Smarty is most of the reason he uses PHP at all. However, I see no reason why Perl shouldn't have something similar. Perl does have templating engines, but none that come near Smarty, and I am hoping to change that with this project.
Unnamed Audio Compression Algorithm
I have been deeply interested in audio compression since 2001, wanting an algorithm that could fit a decent amount of music in 32MB of memory without sounding completely offensive. I have experimented and continue to experiment with several different designs, but sadly, I have no code I wish to publish yet.
