Lots of Updates

Its been a while since i last made my post. In that time, i've learned to navigate around Joyent, though i dont think i'm making the most of their offerings. I've partially finished coding(Ha! can you believe it?? I'm coding!!) my study app and it's even gone live. Lots of code to learn here, a lot of it was new(FBML,PHP and MYSQL) but i like to think i've coped well.

Now, while not a lot of the people who've added it have utilised it, i guess i just have to show more patience. Its been only 3days ( I launched on Friday, today is Monday) and i've spent a while today marketing it to people so hopefully the numbers should go up. This btw, is Idea3 that was mentioned below.

I also signed up for and was alloted free hosting on another server. I havent started using that yet but the interface there appears to be more like GoDaddy so i guess it should be easy to use that. That said, took me quite a while to figure out how to work Joyent and i'm really pleased with myself. Especially since its a Solais interface which means i had to SSH/SFTP. That took some getting used to.

I also migrated all my e-mails to Google Apps. Find it very convenient and i love Google apps so it was no-brainer really.

All in all, an extremely useful phase of learning and work.
