Its been a while…

So here I am, actually posting a blog.  Its been a while, I know, but I thought I’d just say something so I actually have a post before the end of the year.

I’m working on a couple of websites that I want mostly completed by the end of the year.  Of course, thats nothing new, as that has been said before.  One of these projects is going to remain anonymous until I have it completed.

Projects I can talk about:

  • Josh’s Padd -  Obviously, I have parts of my personal site that aren’t complete yet.  I had planned a few improvements a few months ago, but those were never completed.  They’ll be worked on over winter break, though I don’t know if they’ll be done or not.  Improvements include some custom scripts to add dynamic functionality to my personal site, some rework on this blogging area, and more ways of advertising my site.  These services are free for people to use… lets use them!
  • Star Wars Unleashed - Star Wars Unleashed has had its current site for just about two years.  The site needs updating, a new look, and an interface for its members.  This will also be worked on during the winter, as some of its code will be coming from what I do on my private site.
  • AshleyGarland.com - This website is going to get a new look to go with the release of Ashley’s new album.  I have yet to see the cover or hear it, but when I do, I’ll start planning improvements for her site.

And, as mentioned earlier, I have a private site that I’m working on and won’t disclose until its complete.

The host of that site, though, is going to get mentioned here.  KnownHost has done a great job is setting me up.  In fact, they did something that I haven’t experienced with a hosting company before.  Last week, I received a Christmas card from them.  Now, I don’t celebrate Christmas, but the reception of the card tells me alot about their customer service.

All in all, I am thinking that KnownHost is a good host.  Though they specialize with VPS systems, I’ve been happy with their hosting.  Go ahead and check them out.  They get my vote.

And I think I’ll take this time to introduce a new feature:  Jeren’s Site of the Month.  KnownHost wins the JSotM for December 2006 and January 2007.  The next site will be mentioned during the last week of January.

Have a good end of the year, folks.
