This is good to know. I am currently in the process of leaving my current job and looking for work in a different country(UK). I have been hacking away at a side project that will help fill a particular need but mainly because:

a) I wanted to expand my skill set and work on a language and environment that I don't get to explore in my current job.

b) I want to have something to show potential employers to let them know that I am passionate about development and more than just a 9-5 programmer.

The issue I currently have is that the code is ugly and there are lots of things that I feel I could refactor and clean up. I might always feel this way as I am sure I will never have anything "perfect". I am wanting to get it live within the next few weeks and I think that I will have to accept that I just need to get it live and then focus on improving it after I have had feed back from users etc.
