Happy New Year!!! What happened in 2009?
It just feels like yesterday when I was trying to think up my New Year’s resolutions for 2009. And here I am, a short year later, already thinking ahead to 2010. Time runs way too fast! It’s about time to start considering what my New Year’s resolutions will be this time around, and instead of pledging to start going to the gym or eating better (which I’ll probably do…until February arrives); I’ve decided not to tell what my resolution for 2010 will be. This probably makes it easier to achieve my goals – speaking of which: This is what Wikipedia says about the success rate of New Year’s resolutions:
Recent research shows that while 52% of participants in a resolution study were confident of success with their goals, only 12% actually achieved their goals. Men achieved their goal 22% more often when they engaged in goal setting, a system where small measurable goals are used (lose a pound a week, instead of saying “lose weight”), while women succeeded 10% more when they made their goals public and got support from their friends.
The number one on the list of new year’s resolutions is to lose weight. Of course, that’s on my list every year, either. To help you to achieve your goal when it comes to lose weight, I’d like you to see this little video – this will show you some little tips to lose weight successfully:
So what happened in my 2009?
I thought about the things that I was doing this year and only two major achievement came into my mind. All the others would not be of interest for you as they were just – you know – “normal”… yeah… kinda had a normal life in 2009.
Hello new website: Yes, this blog post wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for the year 2009. Yeah on August 5th I wrote my first blog post here on my new website. Yes – this summer I’ve moved from a static “offline CMS” called Rapidweaver to an “online CMS” called WordPress, with a new design and new features. This new content management system now helps me to keep the website more up-to-date and of course to edit it from almost everywhere. My first blog entry can be found here: http://www.mastixmc.de/2009/08/05/first-entr.
Android AIRMail released: The weather was getting darker and colder because the autumn was about to show its dirty face (I’m kind of a summer guy), so I’ve decided to spend these uncomfortable evenings coding a new application for Android mobile phones. As you might already know, software development is my hobby, which is why I thought that it would be a fair compensation for the bad weather outside. Android AIRMail became pretty successful for a German App that only O2 customers can use. The current version is Android AIRMail v0.67 – it’s still free of charge and still beta, but will become final next year.
Android AIRMAil has been tested by AndroidPIT (German):
„Android AIRMail“ macht genau das, was es soll – und das sogar sehr gut. Interface und Bedienung sind schlicht, dafür effektiv und selbsterklärend. Die Applikation kann damit getrost als „Must-Have-App“ eingestuft werden, zumindest für o2-Nutzer mit gebuchter Internetoption.

As our world grows another year older… Here’s wishing that you get the biggest slice of happiness and good luck to fill your heart and home today and the whole year through. Happy New Year!!! I’d also like to thank all donators and testers that have been supporting my work on Android AIRMail for the last few months – with your ideas you’ve been helping me to make this app that successful – thank you.
With regards,
Sascha
