Welcome funky chicken to Episode 46 of podcasts slamming doors, also known as the view from the crow's nest. How you doing, whoever you are, whoever's listening. If you're about come over to Twitter and see me at Romeo crow because I want to know who you are. Not that I'm particularly nosy but I just think it's really cool to know who's listening to this, so please do come say hello. So today today today today. I did a little bit of work on watching it where it did. I had my first viewing of the grip the sky the fabled grip of the sky experience, which was my wife. And so I unleashed her upon it, and immediately saw problems by watching how she browsed it, and realised that there are a few things where I could have made it clearer what one must do. So that's give me a couple of design things there was also one little spelling error which hadn't caught up on and a couple other little things so I ended out most of those bugs, but there's a couple little design things I need to finish. Tomorrow, ideally, but it's it's it's nearly there, it's it's so nearly there. The basic of Is there a home. But this morning we had our personal training session and by the time we'd both done it, because someone had it first then myself. And then it was kind of like early lunchtime and then dinner so I didn't get working until after sort of two o'clock so my done by one then fun is right out the window it's on its head. So by the time she looked through the grip the sky experience and by the time I sort of tried to get working, and it was already sort of getting on into the afternoon. But what I did have today is despite not doing that many hours of work. And I did do something incredibly productive. I had a video interview with the first person who might be joining the team for audience ninja. And that was really cool. A guy called Dan, who's in Romania, and it went really well. I like the guy. He's, he's interested in likes the idea of what we're doing. So, pretty sure that in the next day or two, I'm going to confirm with him, that we'll start with him on Monday, and that'd be really cool because that'll be part from the first time I've hired somebody full time to join the team, or to join you know, anything that I have created or that I'm working on. It will hopefully give more capacity for similan II which means we're going to be able to start moving that leap faster on some of the projects some of the businesses some of the ideas. And that is really the name of the game. And I really hope it sort of goes according to plan, because, frankly, this, this could be a huge turning point in, you know, in, in our future and how we're doing and that's a really exciting thing. After that, I had another video call this time with a tool a software tool that I use the guy behind it wanted to walk through a few things and pick my brains on a few things. And that was really cool very helpful. I gave him. He I mean, show me some really cool functionality with it, and I gave him some ideas that he was pleased with and said he's gonna try and implement. So that's really positive, and I love that about sort of not startup software tools but certainly very near startup software tools that the founders are very close to the action, and very keen on implementing positive change and feedback as quickly as they can. So you really can have a bit of a hand in shaping some of those tools, and I've used, I mean I've bought hundreds literally hundreds of software tools. Over the last sort of three, four years, and used, you know, a hell of a lot of software tools. So I've got a bit of an idea of what helps you know, what makes them more useful and whatnot so I'm very glad to be able to kind of share that. Look at that knowledge and experience and be helped try and shape it to my design because you know at the end of the day you want to talk to do something to save you time, generally, and being able to shape how that works is brilliant. It's a real privilege, because t
