Too many distractions
I seem to get easily distracted or at least quickly intrigued by new things. It seems that having a constant urge of wanting to learn and understand new ideas and objects has its drawbacks. It seems lately that my personal projects get stopped because I go off and dive into some other completely different topic.
For example, my current Google Maps project is getting side-lined by things like:
- wanting to have a solid grasp of how various hash algorithms work
- wanting to fully understand FastCGI and SCGI and their inner-workings
- watching a very interesting Google talk about BigTable
- from that talk being introduced into Bloom filters and wanting to explore those more
Maybe if I blog about the problem, it’ll leave me… Do I even want that?
