Sitemaps

under Programming, Sitework at 7:22 pm on February 13th, 2008

I thought it was about time I made this site a bit better to access. We now have wordpress sitemaps being generated by a plugin and they are being submitted to the Google, Live Search and ASK search engines. The Web Management tools for the first two are pretty cool.
If there is anything else I should do for better search engine results/more traffic, do let me know. Pics of dt could help but we want to try non extreme measures :P

Here’s the season to be grumpy…

under General Stuff at 9:33 pm on December 4th, 2007

No, I didn’t mess up the song. Its the season I’m usually happy about. Nice cool weather is fun (at least here it is. Sucks to be Mr. Nitro :P) I’m grumpy because I have to give a few exams now. I’ll be all caught up giving 5 exams from the 7th of December to the 9th of January. Yes, that’s a month and 2 days for 5 exams. FU MU :P You seriously fail at time tables.

Anyway, Christmas time is here and so is a special christmassy header ;) Also my forum signatures have a distinct festive feel to them as well. Here are a few of the avatars and signatures I made/adopted from my existing collection.

Avatars
Godsend: Godsend Christmas Avatar

JA Beta: JA Beta (web 2.0) Avatar

Wiggles: Plus! Wiggles Avatar

Signatures
Godsend: Christmas Godsend Signature

JA Beta: John Anderton (web 2.0) Signature

Wiggles: Plus! Wiggles Signature

The Godsend signature is brutally screwed up :( It could have been so much better :)
What do you think?

PS: Christmas Godsend > Christmas Magical Trevor

j@x 1.2 - Code Overhaul

under Projects, Sitework at 6:50 pm on October 29th, 2007

Its been almost a year since I coded j@x. Way too long. Its been a minimalistic piece of code for long enough. Time to add a bit more functionality but not at the cost of speed. I’m starting to add more features from today and you should see the changes in the next few days.

The changes (publically viewable) include:

    * More bbcode to work with.
    * A non-geek theme with theme switcher.
    * Better post box.
    * Use of cookies for user recognisation for comments.

Internal changes that are planned include a real administrator panel and on the fly editing of posts/comments. May be even a registration system for users who want to leave comments so that they could have email updates or update their own comments (only comments added after registration would be editable :P)

It starts with me installing PHP and MySQL on IIS 7 (Vista) to work then to move it on to the server.

This should keep me busy for a few days I guess ;) And oh, I need to study! :o
