Well I am finally finished with mercyhighered.org and HomeGuardIowa.com you can stick a fork in them they are completely finished. I have been working on several other projects as well. I have made some updates to OneArtLabel.com but many are still needed…. I have also been working on communic8or.net it is also undergoing numerous changes….
I finally setup my office! I set up dual monitors 
I am currently running Linux Ubuntu, OS X, and Vista on my network. Now I just have to setup my network so it is accessible remotely (you know remote control). I have also been working on setting up my ubuntu box so it connects wirelesssly (by the way not very fun spending this much time in front of a BASH Shell). I have recently installed a newer graphics card on my ubuntu box to currently working on setting up XGL to run. Anyway I have been very, very, busy. I am looking forward to some time off soon..
Side Note:
Google is finally perfecting its web tool kit and also putting it out their as open source so you might want to check it out. The tool kit allows designers to use googles ajax library much like yahoo's user interface library except maybe a little better.

Hi Brendon, I have been in this business a long time and nothing surprises me but the call I just got from Info probably comes the closest. They are no longer worried about the test they have no problem with you doing other work as long as it does not interfere with what you are doing for them. They would like you to be on board December 27th and you can come to work through us as a contract with the right to hire or go full time right off the bat with them. Salary demands we can live with. Please call me or let me know your thoughts ASAP. ########## From: Brendon Smith Sent: Friday, December 08, 2006 8:34 AM To: ########## Subject: RE: Sites I am sorry to inform you I have still not yet had a chance to go and take the test. I have been over loaded here at work. We are currently one short on our already barebones Information Services Staff. I have also recently moved and this month I also received more than double the amount of my salary in freelance work. So with that in mind I would first like to mention if I did work for InfoUSA I would not be willing to sign any document that said I could only do web development for them and I would also need to revise my salary requirements ('##########' ). I after studying their test yes I certainly could complete it but then I would be knowingly handing over some of my work for which I would not receive pay (that they could use). If they would like to give me a written test that would be fine. Sorry for any inconvenience that may cause. —–Original Message—– From: Brendon Smith Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2006 8:41 AM To: '##########' Subject: Sites Web Sites I currently administrate, build, and design: http://csm.edu http://csmweb.csm.edu/cfp/athletics/ http://seacloud9.org web site for interactive experiments http://i-create.org a php friends networking site I run Current Freelance Projects: http://wurglerphoto.com http://www.ljdistributing.com/ http://homeguardiowa.com Current Projects I am working on: CSM Intranet Video (it uses coldfusion and is secure so I cannont actually show it to most people) Campus Map (still in beta) Information on Design Technique with downloadable examples I have also been working on a Portal Project for the College utilizing Microsoft share point.

Well evidently a mmorpg company is going bankrupt and they are offering up their software it looks like some of the developers and community are gathering together in an attempt to make the project completely open source. They are comparing the project to the Blender project. I did contribute money in the past to Ton Roosendaal to help make Blender an open source project and although I do not know the people involved I will still help out with the project simply because I would like to play with the source code and throw it on a server of my own. So check out the site..
What is Ryzom
Ryzom is an innovative MMORPG, which has been developed since the year 2000 by the independent studio, Nevrax. For the past two years Ryzom has been marketed and sold to gamers, developing a fiercly loyal fanbase. Unfortunately, due to market conditions and other unforseen cirucumstances, a request to begin bankruptcy proceedings has been filed at the commerce tribunal.

Well I can see the light at the end of the tunnel I am about finished with the Sister of Mercy Higher Education conference (click here for the visual demo). This site will be used as a communication tool for the Sister of Mercy. It integrates flash chat, word press, and phpbb with a single logon. I have also been thinking about placing an image gallery on the site for them to use as well. You can think of it as their very own social network. I just need to clean up the images make a few more skins and work on the documentation!
I am also about finished with HomeGuard security a company out of Des Moines. It is a slick little flash site. We are also thinking about integrating a blog so the client can update his own content and then streaming it with an rss reader for the web front end on their site! This page will be wrapped up soon though. I am looking forward to finishing these sites then I will have more time to blog
