I am Camron Flanders.

Just a 25 year old dude living in Lawrence, KS in my last semester at KU. When not involved with school, you’ll find me at the nearest golf course or on my computer hacking away at something. I’m working on an iPhone app – TaskPhone – to sync with TaskPaper, the only task management app that seems to work for me. I sculpt objective-c and cocoa in xCode, but vim is my true text editing love. My extensive vim configuration is available on github though I keep it in sync using dropbox.

I have been taking trips all my life, but they seem to be happening much more often lately. I always have my Leica C-LUX 3 and at times with my Canon 300D, when portability isn’t most important. There is a awfully good chance that when you see me alone, I will have my headphones in. From Chopin to U2, the Beatles to Notorious B.I.G. and Bob Dylan to the Ting Tings, I love it all.

I’m no stranger to cars, extensively modifying and working on them for several years – even building my own bumper – and seriously want another SAAB 900 (classic), this time an SPG. However if it’s nice out, you just might find me on my Specialized Allez on my way to school or downtown to a coffee shop.

This site is built using the Django full-stack web framework with the help of a magic pony. When javascript is used around here, it’s gotta be jQuery. I use parts of 960 for a nice, clean grid. A mix of Georgia and Helvetica Neue keep it interesting at font sizes larger than most sites. This is all lovingly served up by Media Temple (mt) from a 256mb Django container on my grid server (gs).

projects

Agro
Built for django, this is a lightweight online activity aggregator. I built it with the purpose of being able to easily add plugins and it now has the ability to track external models. Bundled plugins include: Twitter, Flickr, Last.fm, Delicious, and DroppedPin — a plugin to to read emails containing a GMaps link to add geographic locations.
CFLog
This was designed to make logging in my cocoa projects easier and more useful. Severity levels, overrides, the ability to remove all logging from a release build, were all goals of this logging object. My output contains the file name, line number and function name containing the log statement.
Mango
A django app to add mixtape functionality to your site with a design cloned from muxtape and opentape. Banner color is customizable per tape, with multiple tape support!
iWeatherCal
Always have your calendar open? Want the weather forecast in your pocket? With this app, you can add an iCal subscription and always have the forecast right where you want it.
