Website Version 3.0

For two years and two months ago I released the previous version of this site. Only about four months later I started on a completely new site from scratch. I mentioned this over a year ago, but now it is finally here!

It uses a totally new framework, called 109framework, created by my self. It has several cool features which you probably will not notice as you are only seeing the HTML output :) . But soon I will release 109framework to the public so you can use it yourself.

For the frontend I have done a lot to improve its speed, "correctness" and coolness, including the use of HTML5, CSS3 and jQuery. There is one thing, however, I can do to improve it even more, and that is minifying the code (both HTML, JavaScript and CSS). But, I have decided not to do this so it will be easier for anyone interested to look at and steal it - as that is what the internet is all about! :)

I have spend the last three hours doing the actual release of the site. It should have been really easy but of course there were all kinds of weird bugs showing up - mostly UTF-8 problems :/ . Those should be fixed (or hacked for now), but there might be more. So I would be grateful if you would tell me about any problems you might find. You can use the comment system for this article - or send an email of the comment system does not work :P .

All of my previous blog entries will contain broken links to images etc. and I will go through those and fix them... some day. I have fixed the first page at least just so the page does not look broken on the first visit ;) .

The content of the site have changed a lot... well not that much actually but most have been rewritten. Some sections have been removed, others have been added and finally some have been moved.

When I designed the site I wanted some cool background images with a kind-of transparent content area and I succeeded. But, these background images uses 150-200 KB which is quite a lot. Therefore if you are visiting from a mobile device it will turn of the background images. It will also mean that every time you will see a new background image it takes just a bit longer before the browser have finished rendering the page. As soon as you have them all it will go pretty fast. You can use the icons at the top-left corner of the content to cycle through the background images. There are currently 18 background images of a total of 3 MB! ... and I will add more later.

It has been four months since my last entry. There were so much to tell that I could not find the time to actually write a post, and suddenly this release got really close so I decided to wait until after. So expect some "informative" blog entries in the future. :P

Now, enjoy! :P ... I better get back to the TV.
