I've been busy hacking away at the code behind Widgely, trying to make it into a more modular form so that I can re-use it across some other website ideas I have. This month will be very busy while I get this new idea launched, and make sure that the code is reusable.

I can see great potential for the template/document creation code behind Widgely, and I've got heaps of ideas for how to make some cool sites using it. But I need to focus on some ideas that have the potential for me to make some money from them. I love doing this, but in the end, I have to pay the bills. Widgely is a great website (If I do say so myself :), and so far the users I have seem to like it. Many keep coming back, and I can see through the Google Analytics that they spend a good amount of time on the site, creating documents. But a site like this is hard to monetize untill we have large amounts of users, who will only come when there is content, which only comes when there is a large amount of users, which .... you get the picture.

So I plan on using the code behind widgely to create some more sites with a greater business flavour. One's that solve some problems for people who are willing and capable of paying. The first will be launched in a couple of weeks, and then I'll be working on another that is really getting me excited
