New Secret Project

In the past 48 hours over 4 thousand lines of code have been written and about 20 hours have been put into it. In this past 48 hours I have had to make a few sacrifices; sleep is one of these. The project has a secure user back-end setup for login and registration. It also has 14 tables in the database that are growing in size as I continue to add information.

The idea behind this site is strong and a site like it is needed. It will allow people to easily check up on certain things, favorite them, write and read reviews, rate and more.

RSS.Skorg Project Update

The Brower Friendly Feed Viewer is now looking a little bit better with some new colors and a few more details ironed out. The site now a change in drop shadows. Everything is now linked into using the opacity feature that css3 gave us. There has also been some removal of dashed lines which give the site a cleaner appearance.

Some of the bigger changes consist of a new image based header that was quickly photoshopped and thrown in. Along with the header there is a new rainbow stripe background. Sorry vimeo but I loved the font you used and thus I have thrown it in for the header image.

Continued Work on Lirkr’s Back-end

The project lirkr is somewhat bigger then I could have ever imagined but then again it is a search engine. At this point in time I am unsure if the progress is steady enough to have it fully operational by next year. Some of the things that still need to be done are:

Switch from keyword to phrase searching
Allow users to change page rank based on votes
Optimize back-end code for faster searches
Keep track of what the users are trying to get
Prioritize search results based on users habits

RSS.Skorg.org ressurected

Recently I found myself with a little free time on my hands in between working on various projects and while scrolling down through my servers list of domains I stumbled upon rss.skorg.org after forgetting about it for quite some time. Eight hours later, two sketch ideas and nine pages of writing I began to rework some of the back-end code.

The browser friendly feed project now has an upgraded look, the ability to subscribe to feeds and will soon have the option to unsubscribe, rate and recommend feeds to others. Eventually I would like to have lists of the top feeds out there along with some more information on the feeds but for now a redesign and some new code to make it run faster is something that I can be content with.
