Thanks! This comment made my day. Certainly knowing which directions not to go in is a big part of my efficiency, and something I'll point to whenever I get asked that question in the future.
What I find most fascinating about your side projects is how you bring together a number of different skills in a way that looks almost effortless. Knocking out a search engine or a twitter reader as a throwaway learning project is one thing, but doing it over the course of little more than a week with a well designed UI in a way that ends up being useful in your own workflows? That not only takes some serious work but also the ability to correctly judge which directions not to go in, which can be one of the hardest aspects of developing software.
