  1. Fu Are You?

    September 29, 2009 by EDubya

    Like any good geek household, we have a collection of domain names that we, at some point, HAD TO HAVE, for whatever GREAT IDEA. Most of the time it ends at the domain name, but not always. While it is true that my favorite domain is sitting idle (for now) not all of them are. Mind you, I don’t build anything, I just am lucky enough to be married to a RoR developer, so if I play my cards right he’ll spend a half of a day whipping something up for me. Right now, I’m plotting a way to get him to build a dashboard for managing a remote team with a predictable, consistent workflow (hint hint), but enough about me… fu

    He’s built a bunch of things in his vast amounts (read as “no”) spare time, including zeaLOG. I guess you know that you chose the right career when you still do it for fun outside of your job. He also doesn’t sleep. I should mention that. I think we lived together more than a ear before I ever saw him asleep. That leaves him with a few more hours in the day than most mortals. He and his buddy @SimianLogic are big movie buffs, and they decided they wanted a better way to find movie times, so they built one, of course. They came up with ShowtimeFu. So…funny thing happened last Saturday. ShowtimeFu ended up on TechCrunch quite unexpectedly, really complimentary piece too. Domain secured on 8/17, TechCrunch on 9/26. That’s pretty nutty.

    If you haven’t given it a whirl, check it out. Quite proud of the boy(s).
