January I've been working on a project to repurpose the <a
href="http://reddit.com/">Reddit</a> <a href="http://code.reddit.com/">source
code</a> into a kind of community blogging platform with voting and karma.

The result of that work went live on Thursday and after an initial hiccup with
a questionably named user posting off topic content its going well so far. One
of the first posts on the site is one asking for feedback on
<a href="http://lesswrong.com/lw/5/issues_bugs_and_requested_features/">Issues, Bugs, and Requested Features</a>.
The thread has been inundated with all three of these so it looks like I still
have plenty of work ahead refining the user experience.

As well as being the first site I've worked on from start to finish (aside from
personal ones) Less Wrong is also my first Python project and significant open
source project. It's been great learning another programming language and
putting that knowledge into practice. You can <a
href="http://github.com/tricycle/lesswrong/">check out the code on
GitHub</a> (pun not intended). Also if you end up looking at or using the
code or Less Wrong itself and encounter any issues there is an <a
href="http://code.google.com/p/lesswrong/issues/list">issue tracker on Google
Code</a> where they can be logged.
