What to do this New Year?

01 Jan 2010

This is a very cliched, 1st of January, blog post — however it does tie in, very nicely, to my first resolution. Here, for posterity, is a list of the four things I plan to achieve in 2010:

~~Start blogging more often.~~ Start blogging. This blog was started on the 25th March 2009 with the very best of intentions. It has lain dormant ever since. This year I plan to make good on last year's intentions and actually post some content.
I had heard about Code Katas a while back. Having completed my first one last year, after being inspired by Katacasts, I found it very enjoyable and quite useful. Over the coming year I am going to complete some different katas, complete some using different languages and different programming styles.
I've always wanted to be able to take decent photos. To this end I'm going to take more frequent photos this year. I recently saw the excellent Panasonic GF1 review so might invest in one of those. Or I might just start by using my phone. I think taking part in The Daily Shoot would be a good start.
I'm also going to travel round the UK some more over the next year. I want to visit Bath, Cambridge, Exeter and Leeds for starters — mainly because I have sofas to crash on there!
