Slight design updates and ‘new year resolution’ results

Posted on 30th of April, 2008

Well, the academic year is almost over. My graduation is on the 17th of June, just a couple of days after my birthday. Over the last couple of weeks I had my dissertation deadline and two side projects/clients wanting a website. I managed to complete everything though! The two projects will be revealed in due time after their official release. While working on other people’s websites I decided to fix some pending issues on this site. So after a couple late nights, I did some updates that you’d probably have noticed by now. Apart from that, I think I fulfilled my “new year’s resolution” post I posted back on December. Anywho, in case you didn’t catch the updates, here’s the complete list.

The following list contains site updates and completed tasks from my new year’s resolution (the web edition :P )

  • Header and footer images slightly changed. There was something wrong with the colours that I didn’t like for a while
  • Added my latest ‘twit’ from my twitter account on the front page
  • Added direct RSS links for both blog and photo updates
  • Added a flash slideshow for my photos (slideshow is provided by flickr)
  • Remove the ‘Latest Post’ header image in the front page. It was a bit too much I guess
  • I’m using a javascript library in the ‘photography‘ section for all photo thumbnails. They now have a glossy look.
  • Taking more and more photos
  • I did unlocked my iPhone when the first 1.1.2 software unlock solution come out. Over the last week I unlocked over 15 iPhones using the Pwnage Tool
  • Removed most (but not all) google ads
  • My final year project is complete, but unfortunately will not be publicly available due to its nature.
  • I applied for an MSc degree and I got accepted at the University of Surrey. I will be attending an MSc in Internet Computing next year

So if you take a look at my “new year’s resolution” post, you can clearly see that I managed to complete most of my goals. Also I realized that I love making lists :P
