“Too many things to do, never enough time.” I know we’ve all felt that way. Right now, it’s my turn. In addition to my already fulfilling and overbooked life, I’ve eluded to some special projects I’ve been working on.
Rocalicious 2009 Calendar
This is now the single most viewed post on my blog. There must be a lot of women out there anxiously awaiting this product (and maybe a few ‘men’).
The calendar is almost ready, and should be in my upcoming online store, the Store of Roc, shortly. Just finishing up some postwork on the images. Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten!
Bio CD
The other project I’ve been working diligently on for the last two months is a sixteen track soundtrack chronicling the story of Roc Wieler thus far. It was an emotional experience composing, arranging, mixing and mastering this CD, but I am very excited to see the reaction my readers and fans have to this musical work. It will be launching at the Store of Roc on Dec 15th!
I gave a sneek peak of the Rocalicious 2009 Calendar not too long ago, so it’s only fair if I give a sneek peak of the Bio CD. The title track of the CD can be downloaded HERE. It’s in AAC format, perfect for iTunes. The CD itself has superior quality of course, but I chose AAC for this preview as it does a better job than MP3. If you have issues playing it, I’m sorry, you’re just gonna have to wait for the CD.
Capsuleer
This list just keeps growing. Sam and I have been relentless in our pursuit of bringing you the single best EVE Online iPhone application. The features we’re adding should really immerse our users more into both EVE and into the application. We’ve restructured our entire application process, and laid out our plan about 4 major version releases in advance, so our roadmap is completely defined, and there are already elements of future releases being implemented into v1.1 of Capsuleer.
So thanks for bearing with me recently. I still try to write a rambling every day, and once I get these things off of my plate, I am sure it will be back to business as usual. Of course, Christmas is here, New Year’s, wrapping up projects at work … ugh … too many things to do, never enough time.
ROC'S RAMBLINGS 
Yay, Roc OOC!
You are a busy man, can’t wait for all the stuff to come!
/me pulls out the VISA and begins warming it up
Capsuleer is the only reason I’d ever want an iPhone, and you’re really making me want one. Why do you want me to be poor so badly?
As for the Calendar and Bio CD, I’ll definitely buy. Would you consider taking isk? I can pay in RL money… I’m just asking. I still need a calendar anyways, and the nerdcore calendar I wanted ended up being too expensive.
Incidentally Roc, the Bio sample file is not there…clicking the link results in a Not Found message. More teasing! Not fair!
I’m actually going to be taking cold hard cash for these endeavours, and here’s why.
I am using a self-publishing house that takes a cut from every calendar and CD sold.
Sadly, they won’t take ISK as their payment. I tried to reason with them. Honest.
As for going poor from an iPhone; by the time we’re done with our app, people might start calling it EVE Offline.
@Mynxee – can someone give me an EVE Files lesson please? I’ve uploaded it twice now, and both times it shows as successful, and I test the link successfully. Within hours, it’s gone.
@Roc – You’re a noob.
@Roc, I have no idea what the answer is, as I’ve never used EVE-Files. If–until you get the eve-files issue sorted–you’d like for me to host the file on one of my own domains, I’m happy to do that for you. Just give me a shout at mynxee@eve-mail.net (yes, that email address is *finally* working again) and we’ll work it out.
@Roc: The sneak peek link is live; your work is absolutely stunning. I cannot wait to have the whole CD. Wow.
Dear Santa, this year I really want:
– 1 unit of Capsuleer with POS monitoring, asset management, corp member creeping, and a skill planner
– 1 unit of Roc’s Bio
– 1 Rocalicious 2009 Calendar
– 1 very nice gift from Spectre
– 1 good luck for industrial adventures
– …
@Roc, if you’re having issues with EVE-files, maybe you should try a different service. Rapidshare, Megaupload and Mediafire seem to be popular.
@Psyche – Actually, Mynxee was kind enough to host it on the Hellcats server. Download it and give it a listen. Maybe it will entice you to buy the CD.
