Red-x android app

I am calling the new app red-x (after the Jerry Seinfeld motivation method) for now. It's still not released, but I am going to put it on the Android market place as a free download soon to see what people think of it.

I have been using it in its half functional form for a bit over a week now. So is it working for me? Well kinda.

  • I had not been exercising and am getting something done most days now. 
  • I had put a task in there to read the news every day. This too is going well, but then again there is a lot going on in Ireland at the moment, so reading the news is compulsory. 
  • I have been chipping away at the android programming too, which was one of my other tasks. 
  • I got a nice camera early this year and had not really used it. I decided the remedy to that was to take at least one photo every day. This I have been doing with no gaps and have learned a lot about the camera and taking photos as a result. 
That's pretty much the idea of this simple app.

I think I may have too many daily tasks in there to keep track of at the moment. Something which I might limit before I release the first version. Sometimes I feel a bit harried by the weight of all those things to do. I am going to try to persist for now though as I want to see what the benefits are of this forced habit forming.
