017 — Flow like water

Giving into the flow. I feel like I have been getting frustrated with myself for not fully focusing on a single project. After all, that's the only way to build a successful product. Right? RIGHT???

So, I have succumb to my fleeting thoughts and ideas to go where the water is taking me and not wasting time, nor energy, trying to fight the temptation or push out the motivation because I think I should be working on something, when my brain is clearly telling me different.

With that said, I have been working on the new opengraphs.com app that will be replacing LinkCards, and so far so good. I am about to the point of having a completely rewritten app using all new frameworks and underlying schema that will do everything that LinkCards had previously done, but also support some ideas that I have had for it for a while now, so it’s kind of nice to come in clean and green field this thing with fresh cold and incubated ideas.

I am pushing to have the first version of the app deployed to the production instances this week, and hopefully have one of my sites using the new endpoints for image generation. There’s definitely still a lot of work before I will let people in and start charging cards, but I really want to get to a point where I can start to stress test this new setup to make sure it’s going to perform the way I think it will. 🤞
