Version 6 Is Upon Us
Sep 30, 01:51 PM By Eoghan O'Brien.It’s 4:30am and I’m still up puttin some final touches to version 6 of the site, I’ve put a lot of work into the little details this time around.
So! Whats new in this version? I hear you ask. Well, V6 will be the first design to feature “Sidenotes” (basically a blogroll) which will contain any random interesting bits of information I see around the Interweb, I’ve added a Books section where I’ll be adding all the books I’ve read into an online library and I’ve finally Categorised all my posts for easier browsability.
Whats gone? With progress there comes deprecation and that is certainly the case with the V6 update, I’ve removed the Colphon and Gallery pages because they were’nt getting much traffic, the Colophon page will now be integrated with the About Me page but there is nowhere in V6 for a gallery however I will definately add more features as I go.
Whats Cool? I’ve been working with script.aculo.us for a while now and so I decided to show the public a bit of tidy progressive enhancement using the effects library. Enter the busy bee image acts as a cover for some hidden features, go ahead click the button, I know you want to. Its pretty cool huh? I’ve also added in Christophe Beyls Livesearch Plugin which I found very useful and quite fun.
A couple of other small updates to each page will be completed later in the week, for now I’m happy with this. If you find any bugs or errors please let me know so I can iron them out ASAP.
Let me know what you think of the new site, Leave a comment! :D
