Week #801
We offer UnOffice Hours. It’s a 30 minute slot for anyone to book and chat with us about anything. On Monday, we had a lovely chat. It’s been awhile since a random person reached out, and it was great to meet some new folks and hear what they’re up too and offer any advice we can.
One of the by-products of a lot of experiments, investigations and tests is that we have a bunch of un-used ideas and artwork. This week we looked into Print On Demand services. Maybe we can breathe a little life into some old designs without any commitments. We are in the early stages of just running some of the numbers to make sure we aren’t loosing any money in listing/seller fees, processing fees and taxes.
(I think) We shipped one prototype project this week! Looking back at our week notes, we first mention this in Week #773 in early December 02025. Eight months later, we have ‘finished’ our part of the development, now it is up to them to work on the slide deck, find investors and raise money, build a team and productize the idea. Our portion was just the iOS app, there is a whole other backend image detection system that we didn’t touch. We wish them luck and will continue to help in the transition, but we don’t foresee any further development.
Wednesday was Icelandic National Day (Þjóðhátíðardagurinn). The office was mostly closed, but we still had to answer a few messages here and there from our international projects.
We managed to meet-up with one team using our Time Tracking software and got some feedback about a few things that were broken and could use some improvements. We were able to cover most everything easily and deployed the updates.
The WebRTC project meeting turned into just an asynchronous meeting with a few bugs and improvements. We’re also getting a new project manager on their side to take-over pushing this project over the finish line as we get more people onboarded to test.
On Friday, we finished-up a few tasks in the morning and then closed the office for Week #802.
Week #802
Office was closed this week for some much needed travel and research.
