Custom Blog Engines
July 31, 2008
I use a custom blog engine for a few reasons. Speed, ease of use, and easy customization are just a few. Read on for my take on why you should consider writing your own blog engine.
My Notes

· CloudGate - Usable News Aggregation
August 25, 2008 This is my most recent project. Basically, it's an aggregation of world news into a more easily accessible form. Instead of sifting through recent news looking to see what's most important, key headlines stick out in the cloud.

· Collaborate with Subversion
August 25, 2008 Ever tried to collaborate with editing code? It rarely turns out well unless you have a system to manage the code you all produce. For any project, Subversion is your best bet.

· The Survey, 2008
August 1, 2008 This is A List Apart's second annual survey for those who make websites. It helps to paint a picture of the industry of web design and offers insight into things such as common salaries and practices.

· Cuil
July 28, 2008 Possibly the most over-hyped search engine I've ever seen. It fails to produce useful results. Even searching "Microsoft" doesn't get you their homepage.
