1) Using Chrome's Isolated Web App technology and the afforded TCPSockets in the browser, I am resurrecting an ancient, windows desktop only, TCP protocol for connecting to * from web applications. All Newspeak, all the time.

2) Re-writing my friends football pool in Newspeak. The Squeak/Seaside version has served him well for more than a decade but I've grown tired of the setup. My VPS server got hacked recently affording the impetus to try another iteration. Storing all the data locally in IndexedDB, using my own Newspeak library for that API.

* While I have no problem being "left behind", I refuse to actively assist others in "getting ahead".
