Unfortunately, I'm more of a low-level kernel hacker and math geek (machine learning algorithms, cluster file systems, robotics, etc..) than I am a UI person.

Which is a _major_ problem since the first thing people see is the UI.

And since I wrote my own web server and database, it wasn't really possible to use an off-the-shelf pretty-looking CMS.

So, my current project is a web-based satistical datamining system. And the UI is ... a text box. Which means it will be more difficult for me to f-up the UI. Although, I still might manage to do that.
