Right now I am thinking re-writing an application is really challenging. Especially when the database engine is really different and somewhat abstract or at least it is in the beginning. I find my self second guessing my self all the time wondering if my core-engine I created for Gonevertical.com was the right thing to do. Trying to fit data into a dynamic spec has been quite the challenge combined with the distributed data store.
While trying to preserve the structure to limit my first phase re-write only to push the app to google app engine has been painful. Working in abstractland is really hard on the brain at times, because I've only been able to get short focus times on the weekend in between family time, incrementing my progress on the small scale.
I get frustrated with my progress and the timeline I'd like to launch, hopefully before the new year. Although, I have several systems to cover yet and not sure I can make it. At this point I figure it could take up to 50 days to launch the new version, and that time is built only on the weekends and some week nights if I can fit them in.
Some thoughts as I struggle to launch our next version,
