One Week, Three Days – And Counting

Hey everyone,

So, the work on the site is reaching its 1.5 week mark. This seems like a short period of time. However, when you consider how few hours of sleep I’ve gotten it is a while. And, if you consider how my normal procrastination time has been shifted to what I like to call productination time it becomes epic. I just looked it up and someone has already claimed that word, which disappoints me. So here’s some quick news for you:

• Site is still not ready for Internet Explorer
  • Macs are better anyways and whoever uses Internet Explorer on a Mac is literally retarded. Thanks.
• Final ad banner placement has been decided. Seems fairly unobtrusive to me.
• Backend for posting pages complete, working on integration now
• I’m already celebrating over 1,000 views on a site that isn’t live yet. (They’re not me)
• The under construction page looks awful. I was going to work on it but then decided that time could be spent better updating the actual site.
• Home page school search box now searches schools more quickly and instantly displays results.
• Sitemap is self-updating and interactive now (sort of.)
• Over 10,000 lines of code now.. and counting.
• Still working on the scripts to post view and comment numbers.
• Some of the pages were just put on there as blank pages or duplicates as placeholders
• I’m going on another 30 hours of no sleep. I’ve created the ultimate finals week.

And now, I’ll find a slightly relevant video to post here as will be my habit for most posts.

And this is the awesome song that plays during part of that clip:

And another awesome song from the movie:
