Programming Thoughts

I like to write code, but I'm having a "writer's block" of coding.

So I seek a project to work on. Preferrably something in C/C++, but any ideas are welcome. Ideas?

You can try your hands on coding competitions, they give you problems to solve with language of your choice. Check out www.topcoder.com/tc

Have you though about joing an already existing project? or do you want something new that you can do on your own?

I have considered that, I just haven't really found a particular project to join. It would at least give me something to work on, and be able to contribute to. Thoughts?

Depends on what you want to do, where your interests lie.

If you want to do GUI stuff theres the whole of KDE and GNOME to chose from, and there surprisingly easy to get involved with. Checkout sourceforge and see what projects are asking for developers, and look interesting to you.

I'll take a look at sourceforge. I'm interested in getting into GUI, but haven't done it before (on Linux), so maybe console/utility is my area.
