Posted by Nicholas Brookins on 19 May, 2008Welcome to CodeToast. I’m your host, Nick Brookins. During the day I’m Chief Developer at SAM Systems, a software company that specializes in video surveillance, compression, and streaming.
Beyond a blog, I envision a small community of programmers that create software to solve some real-world challenges, share the experience, and have fun in the meantime.
There are plenty of programming blogs with great information, excellent sites like CodeProject that provide tutorials and help, and open source software projects with people generously donating their time. The concept of CodeToast is to bring all of these aspects together. To build small open source projects, but share in the development with blog posts and articles on how and why they were created.
If you are interested in helping out with development projects or articles - or if you have an idea for software that should exist, but doesn’t - please contact me!

Excellent site concept! I look forward to being involved.
I noticed that your toaster code seems to favor a singleton design; however, your toaster hardware is obviously capable of parallel processing…

Very insightful, we could use someone with your bread-th of knowledge! Not only is the hardware SMT, there’s automatic garbage collection (crumb tray).
All puns aside, I’ll let you know when I have more complete details on some projects, let me know if you think of any candidates for CodeToast applications!

Being cross platform and all, does your toaster support alternative (ie non gluten) breads?

Should there be another persuasive post you can share next time, I’ll be surely waiting for it.
