It went well, although the number of visitors at the moment is disappointingly low, which, at least for me, is not unusual at a new site launch. 93 IPs have been recorded, and the pace is far from being steady, many of those IPs have been recorded last week.<br /><br />Since I launched the site, I corrected a couple of bugs, entirely redesigned the IP address dialer and worked a bit the overall aspect of the forum. The next steps will be to create the Spamology section, though I need to put more thoughts into the whole concept yet. Right now it's mostly a fancy idea that may or may not be interesting.<br /><br />I decided also to make a significant (and more logical) change about the main page. I must remember as well to correct a couple more bugs, one with IE (which sets its own font-size on <h> tags) and one related to bots and Javascript. Interestingly, Google bot disregarded a Javascript instruction I use during loading which alter the title of the page. Basically I used this because I didn't want to use buffering on the server side; I'll have to think of something else as it's a pretty important issue.<br /><br /><br />After all this, which is not necessarily a priority anymore now that the site is online, I will try to focus my efforts on the Chat site. I had almost forgotten about that version 2 I must say ! As a result, when I looked back at the current source code, I found it entirely confusing and perhaps worth some improvement. I almost felt like starting from scratch again, but that would be a mistake, because there are some nice pieces of code too I think (as usual, merely from my amateurish perspective).<br /><br />I would also like to experiment something with one site, but I'm not sure which yet. I want to try using a Postgre database, and perhaps implement some functions that would allow to store temporary files when MySQL is down. Unless I try to use it on its own first, I'm not sure, but I definitely want to give it a try.<br /><br /><b>note:</b> By the way, I decided to change the pronunciation for Ipheo, from a Frenchly 'eeféo' to a more standard 'i-fee-o'.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24926278-115018774091391458?l=xeh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Robert Nevillehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05583737930517067852noreply@blogger.com2
