Online

Friday, February 16th, 2007

For history purposes, I should mention that the website went online and available to the public on Friday, 16th February 2007.

In just over a week I have had over 200 people visit the site and over 7200 hits.

90.3% of those people use a Windows operating system, 5.3% Linux, 3.5% Macintosh and the rest unknown.

To my surprise 47.3% use Firefox while 41.5% Internet Explorer, 6.1% Opera and the rest is just small fish. I thought most would still be using Internet Explorer.

I have made small changes to the site, mainly code wise from suggestions I received. One or two people said that the website is dull. The whole point is to keep things simple, easy to navigate and the colours do a great job. Looking from a professional point of view the website is excellent, at least that’s what I have been told by people that are in the web design business and I happen to agree with them :)

Up and running

It has finally arrived, my personal web site :)

I always wanted to make one but could never find the time to do so. I started working on designs early 2006 but couldn’t come up with a design I liked, UNI started and I had to stop. In December 2006 I was looking at other personal web sites and once again I was inspired. The site you see here is the end result, its Strict HTML 4.1 compliant and contains no CSS errors :)

I got my own domain and web space, something I did not have in the past. If I’m going to have a proper web site that will be kept up to date with regular updates, it’s only fair that I have those two services as well :)

At the moment the news section is static, it doesn’t use any kind of CMS but I plan on changing that in near future.
