What.cd

December, 2008

Dear friends: Can anyone spare an invite for What.CD? I’d like to give it a run. It looks fun/useful. Thanks for reading.

AreaBeyond game again

free time now

Major update time for the game/chat thing at AreaBeyond.com. By the way, I should probably settle on a name. If not AreaBeyond, then perhaps one of the other domains I have pointing at the same host ‒ SocialContact.com (I was kinda offered $1,000 for this domain name, but no follow-up), BeyondoZone.com (a-la my last name and all), ChatSector.com (you can chat there...), NoisyCafe.com (yeah) ‒ are any of these any good? It would make a major difference to settle on a name before I start promoting this. I also seriously need creative help with the game ‒ theme/plot/story/goals/UI/etc.. By the way, there’s a lot of cool stuff under the hood that no one ever plays long enough to find.

More geeky code crap

Fall, 2008

Under the hood it is.

Site layout

March, 2008

I did some geeky code things to the styles. The content is now in source-order, meaning machines and handicap-readers will see it first. I worked out a few tricks around having the content area auto scroll using CSS rather than a frame. I played with some dropshadows. I switched to XHTML1.1 and worked on validating (sending MIME type, etc.) but switched back ‒ it doesn’t really do all I want; no scripts in body. There are still some IE7 quirks to work out.

AreaBeyond game

ad occasionally

I’ve been doing some work to make the AreaBeyond chat/game/text-adventure thing much cooler. Now on PHP 5+, so I can simplify some of the data storage. It has several more images now too, some of which are only placeholders. Please participate.

Host transition

The transition is coming along. I never bothered finishing bringing all the content over, since I became distracted just working on details of the site. Mainly, I’m holding off until I can create my ideal content management system. (Temp index 2).

I added the decorative, useless vine divider separating the left navigation column from the main content area. Due to the relentless positioning methods I used, Internet Explorer gives odd results — all the links at the bottom of the page are obscured by some invisible layer, and are therefore unclickable. Oh well; I do have that Get Firefox icon at the bottom anyway.

Suggestions, anyone? Would you sign my guestbook?

You break it, you buy it.

Do I even need to put a footer here?  Blah blah blah legal mumbo jumbo and so forth. You actually read this whole thing?  If you’re so smart, what should I put here?
