This isn&#8217;t anything to do with that Google program. I&#8217;m just putting out a quick post about what I&#8217;m up to these days.

**New development.**

I&#8217;ve jumped back into mobile development once more now focusing on Ubuntu Phone and Sailfish OS. I see a lot of potential in both of these platforms and some opportunity to expand my skills while having a little fun. I have a social app currently being roughed out and in development. More on that as it progresses. And on the topic of social, I&#8217;ve also been tinkering with some new social APIs that some App.net peeps have been developing. Nothing earth shattering yet but it&#8217;s been fun to try new things, expand my knowledge, and keep in touch with some awesome folks from that network.

**Renamed Todo for BlackBerry 10**

I received notification from Dropbox yesterday that they are deprecating v1 of their API. In about a year they&#8217;ll be shutting it off and any apps that rely on it will no longer function properly. Renamed Todo relies on that API for it&#8217;s one and only sync option. I am in the process of trying to restore my BB10 development environment to see what I can do. I&#8217;m not sure if I&#8217;ll put out an update yet or if the app needs to be fully retired. I&#8217;m aiming to get something out there though since I know there are at least a few people who use it.

**Todo.txt Enyo for WebOS and PlayBook**

This app (a predecessor to Renamed Todo) is also impacted by the Dropbox API change. Since this code is open source I will be publishing an update in support of the API changes. There will be an IPK to go along with it, but a BAR file for the PlayBook will depend on if I can get that development environment restored or not.

**Source code**

I am looking to publish more of my source code over the summer. But rather than posting to github I&#8217;d rather self-host my public code repository and evaluating different options. I&#8217;m interested in what others are using and any good or bad that has gone along with it. Please do share your suggestions and experiences!
