# Season 7, Episode 264

SDC website relaunch - AI-extracted cast/crew archive data - "Name That Face" photo tagging - January show tickets - Taylor's HQ task management tool - Decision paralysis - MCP integration with Claude

Gordon has been rebuilding the Sanderstead Dramatic Club website, replacing a 10-year-old manual site - <a href="https://www.sdclub.org.uk">https://www.sdclub.org.uk</a>

The new site runs on WordPress but is fully dynamic, pulling in shows, photos and awards automatically

Taylor and Gordon designed the site together in a single Saturday session for another group, ATG, which led Gordon to finally tackle his own

Using AI, Gordon extracted cast, crew and chorus names from an archive of programmes going back to 1907

Every member and every show now gets its own dynamically generated page

A new "Name That Face" feature lets viewers tag people in old photos, crowdsourcing identification

Suggestions are auto-approved once two people agree on a name, cutting down moderation work

The group's next show runs in January, with tickets now on sale

Taylor has been building "HQ", his own combined personal and business task management tool

It merges contacts, companies, projects and tasks into one system that can separate work and personal life when needed

Designed to fight decision paralysis by surfacing a maximum of 5 priority tasks at a time

An MCP integration lets Taylor manage tasks through natural language in Claude

Tasks left untouched for 7 days get flagged in a "Decide" section to snooze, complete or archive

Repeated snoozing is tracked so patterns of avoidance get flagged

A limit of 3 active personal projects at once stops Taylor starting too much at once

The system can filter to show only work or only personal tasks depending on context

Both agreed that "good enough is good enough" – starting imperfectly beats not starting at all

Building your own tools means full ownership of maintenance, hosting and security
