Why Completing the Programming of Something New Always Takes Longer than Planned - Blog entry by lkessler - 7 Mar 2015
It’s that unexpected exceptional case that you (of course) never expected, but then happens. I’ve been working hard the last couple of months to finish Version 1.1 of Behold.

Close. But no Cigar. - Blog entry by lkessler - 22 Jan 2015
My phone app says today would be my 95th day of working on Behold since I came back very motivated from Gaenovium. I’ve tried to put at least some work into Behold each day, and I likely missed fewer than 10 days over that time. I put in a significant amount of work (sometimes staying up until 2 a.m.) at ...

2014 and Behold - Blog entry by lkessler - 30 Dec 2014
2014 is almost over. It’s been quite a full year for me. This is my 35th blog post for the year. I’ve also been active on Twitter and GooglePlus. I started the year off preparing for a lecture on Windows Phone for Genealogy at RootsTech 2014 in Salt Lake City. Then shortly after I got back, my father ...
