I'm a passionate learner and sharer. I always try to give back to the developer community. I create mobile and Web applications by day. Not Batman by night, in case you wondered :)
Over the last year, I think I shipped more personal projects than any other year. This has taught me not only to kick that 1.0 out the door but also to accept that there is a point at which something is just good enough to ship even though it's not perfect.
The interesting thing is that shipping accelerated iterations more than projects that are still in private progression. Once you know it's out there, the compulsion to improve it becomes stronger than any other driving force I feel.

absolutely. once it's out there, there's a force of nature that drives you to iterate and improve.
