Jazzaweb (personal website) - Tree of Souls

Jazza · #1 03-08-2011, 11:53 AM

If interested, I have a personal website and web development blog at Jazzaweb. I set it up late last year and been working on it ever since.

If you have feedback, feel free to leave it here or in private message. Thanks

Cool stuff, Jazza. Add PHP to the long list of things I'd like to gain familiarity with... if I ever find the time.

As it is, my web authoring skills have been frozen in time since the mid-90's. Well, I still know where <head>, <body>, and a few other things go, anyway!

The 90's? Things have evolved quickly and enormously since then

Ha-haaa!! Yes indeed! When I took my first 100-level Computer Science course in 1994, my professor said, "Oh, by the way, while you're sitting in front of those Unix machines in the lab, you might want to play with this cool new program called NCSA Mosaic."

I ended up being the first of my class to create a home page. That was before HTML was even standardized!

Haven't done much web development since then, I'm afraid!

Hmm, interesting.

I know XHTML and CSS, but my PHP skills are sadly quite limited.

Mosaic... wow, that's... Quite a long time ago

I only started using the internet ~1998-1999...

I'm pretty young, so I only started using the internet a few years ago. Late last year I finished exams and had plenty of free time, so I spent around 12 hours a day working on php, HTML and CSS to create my website. It takes time, that's all I can say

Definitely keep on top of things and keep that energy level high! I've sort of screwed myself by working in/around existing old code for more than a decade, hence without much professional incentive to pick up new technologies. I try to cover those in my spare time, but there simply aren't enough hours in the day!

I'm presently trying change direction in my career and finding that I've let a few too many things slip past me.

Anyway, again, coolness on the site! Web development in general is something I need to catch back up to.

Thanks and good luck

Have you created the PHP backend too or is it based on some CMS?
