What is this?

Welcome to the Blog of Tomorrow - Today!

The aim of this blog is to show and tell of the various little projects that I'm doing in my spare time. This will mostly be hardware and software projects which will tend to be of little practical use. But I might learn something from it, and hopefully some of the info could be useful to you in your endeavors to waste your time.

I'll also revisit some of the projects that I've been working on and then put aside for far too long. These might progress and actually be finished, or they might just be abandoned forevermore, but at least they'll be documented on the web for years to come.

Currently I've got three main potential projects to work on:
  1. Finishing an Arduino based SD-Card drive for the Atari 800XL (which should work on the other Atari 400/800 machines)
  2. Making a Mockingboard clone for the Apple ][e - adapted from various schematics
  3. Making an iOS application to basically do the things that MyFitnessPal should be doing, but which does badly
I'm not really sure which I'll pick up on first. The Atari 800XL drive thing should be relatively quick as I already have it on a breadboard. I just need to finish some features and then solder it up.

If you have any preference or words of wisdom, hit the comments below.

I hope to see you all in the next couple of days where I'll have picked a project and start hacking at it!
