			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I decided to start posting about my current projects. Lot&#8217;s of times I promise myself that <em>&quot;I will publish something about this great project after I finish it&quot;</em>. But, I never managed to keep those promises.</p>
<p>Why? Simply because there is always a next big thing after the last.</p>
<p>I came to realize that if I talk about my work a posteriori, then I have to make a case out of it and present it as such. That&#8217;s a big project on its own and needs time I don&#8217;t usually manage to find and devote. That&#8217;s often called marketing.</p>
<p>Still, work in progress is always worth a look at and at the same time is often more relevant to what other people are currently doing. So why waste all the energy I put in my projects, in just developing them, instead of adding a tiny extra bit of effort to let others know what work is in progress. That will add up to less than the time I need to publish a posteriori and at the same time, solve the problem of &quot;no marketing&quot;.</p>
<p>The simple implementation of my &quot;what do I do&quot; series is just:</p>
<ol>
<li>use my blog </li>
<li>add two or three categories to it </li>
</ol>
<p>So I am adding these categories to my blog and start ASAP, then take it as it comes:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="http://rousso.eu/?cat=3" target="_blank">Current Projects</a> </li>
<li><a href="http://rousso.eu/?cat=21" target="_blank">Projects On-Hold</a> </li>
<li><a href="http://rousso.eu/?cat=20" target="_blank">Past Projects</a> </li>
</ol>
<p>Work under way is going to be published under &quot;<a href="http://rousso.eu/?cat=3" target="_blank">Current Projects</a>&quot;. As soon as something is history, it will move to the &quot;Past Projects&quot; category. Finally, as some projects are occasionally put on hold while others take precedence, I thought of adding a third category for them to move in and out.</p>
<p>This post will remain for reference as the oldest post in all three categories.</p>
<p>So here we go&#8230;</p>
