Weekend Update

I managed to skim some fat off of my pages...I was handling my error validation messages in a bad way. I was basically printing the html ouput for the entire page out for each error condition instead of using a string variable to output an error based on the error condition....my pages were bloated basically and needed the exercise. I'm working with a voice recorder applet now for the site. It's kind of nice, but I can't seem to get the upload functionality of it working right at the moment...hopefully by week's end. Going to add some voice overs in the tutorial to go along with explaining how to use my site. I figured out a way to turn a cell phone into a microphone...I am trying to make this as easy as possible folks. Stay tuned...

A lil progress...

Did I mention I use notepad to develop this stuff....I need to fall upon some better IDE type tools soon, because the headaches are getting too big. It took me 45 mins to find a rogue "br" in the html to fix my broken "laughics". Besides that, I managed to revamp my member section today. I Basically rolled the upload and download pages into one and hopefully cleaned it up a bit. This will let the users get in do the message thing and get out without clicking around as much. More to come.

Crossroads

I've reached a point where my site functions like I originally planned, and there are no reported glitches as of yet. I look forward to getting my hands on a voice SDK which i'll purchase from VIMAS technologies for implementing a web based voice recorder onto my site. I Looked into some paid search programs today, but I am not sure I have the budget for that stuff.....I'm going to have to market her the old fashioned word of mouth and say it so much people can't stand it way. Interesting times....

First Post

I've officially jumped on the blogsphere as of today. This will be a way for me to write about any personal projects i'm working on or projects that are working on me...(programming can be a headache). Hopefully this supplements my attempts at professionalism in a positive way. I will more than likely post at a decent frequency and probably not everyday, but more than likely about 2 or 3 times a week or if I am really busy 2 or 3 times a month.
