There’s a great article over at GameCareerGuide today about ideas for games, why a great idea might not end up as a great game, why you need a lot of ideas, and how to keep track of your ideas:

• The Idea is Not the Game (www.gamecareerguide.com)

The article has also reminded me that I need to find some kind of remote backup for my source repository. It’s fairly secure in that the source exists on two computers and the repo exists on a RAID server. However, if my office burned down, I’d be kind of screwed…note: find remote backup server.

I spent yesterday going through Apple’s iPhone development videos and reading some of their “intro to iPhone development” documents. Objective-C has a very different syntax from what I’m used to. I was also finding the model of windows vs views a little confusing until I read some of the documentation. I think it’s starting to make sense now. I might actually try some coding today.
