Web site creation and standards guide | 7th Jul 2008

I’ve been reading the Free Software Magazine on-and-off for a few weeks now, whenever something looks particularly interesting. Some stuff is not incredibly impressive, but this article “Creating web pages, the right way” by Mitch Meyran offered a lot of incredibly insightful information as to some of the true considerations for designing a page.

Moving Day | 1st Nov 2007

I’m moving my domain over from GoDaddy to my brand new ANhosting account. What difference does this make for you? Probably not much. I’ve been using ANhosting for a week or two with the RMstudents website and I liked them so much (and they were having such a good Halloween hosting special) [...]

I’ve been slacking | 23rd Oct 2007

So I realize I’ve been slacking with this website. Turns out med school was a lot more work that I imagined, and a lot of my free time has been spent working on the RMstudents website. Fortunately today we completed our move to ANhosting and there should be more time for development. [...]

Rush’s Poor Excuse for Email | 6th Sep 2007

Note: If you’d like to skip my rant and go right to the instructions for bypassing Lotus notes, click here.
Call me spoiled. Maybe I am. I don’t know, but Gmail gives me exactly what I want in a web-based email application. I mainly use Outlook only to force myself to consistently [...]
