My plan was for this next post to explain a little bit about the new software I wrote during my recent break from blogging. It is for building websites. It shares some roots with the software behind this site, except it is more tailored to maintaining large stores of structured data (inventories) then to blogging. And it does one really clever thing I haven't seen before (although, okay, I haven't really examined every other piece of software in this category.)

But instead I want to quickly outline a piece of software that I haven't written, and which is, most likely, beyond my ability to write. Still, sometimes just being able to articulate an idea is a big step.
