VW’s aren’t just cars, they’re like children, expensive, irritating, unreliable and a pile of fun I wouldn’t trade for anything!

New Website Idea

Posted by ArmedGeek on Wednesday, November 11, 2009 in Geekery, News

I’ve been working on a little something for about a week. I’ve been learning a new programming language and web framework. The obvious project to learn with was simply re-creating H&B.com. So that’s what I’ve been doing lately.

The first step obviously is to replicate all the existing functionality that I currently have here with WordPress. Once that is done, I get to start adding new features. One of the first features I have in mind is for y’all. I’d like to add a means of tagging regular commenters. Either an image attached to all of your comments, or a total comment count, date since your first comment here, etc. I could even make it specific to each person (like adding Woody’s signature that he ends his posts with on his site to his comments here). Just something to let someone who just stumbled in off the street know who the Certified & Tested Morons are.

Anyway, as soon as it is more or less functional, I’ll let y’all know so you can all start playing with it (the website i mean).

    Well, that sounds really cool. My tag at the Rott is “a goddess, only different….”, although C&TM works too :D

    Wow. I guess the geek moniker is not just for show. Can’t wait to check it out!

    Heh, yeah, I deserve both the ‘Armed’ and the ‘Geek’. I actually do most of my programming in c++ or python. Recently I decided to go ahead and learn php. I’m not, and have never been, a fan of the language or the people that use it. But, I figure it couldn’t hurt my resume to know it.
