Started work on a timeline showing significant events in the history of KongHack.

It’s definitely been a while since I made a post about the CMS. I couldn’t even tell you all of what’s been done to the site to make it more amazing, as I’ve just been programming like mad in my free time. Here are some of the key points of the system.

• New header nav bar!  Doesn’t that look awesome!
• Upgraded search box, that now both Google searches and Game searches!
• Updated javascript libraries.
• Completely dropped old mysql_lib code.  We’re all PDO now.
• Added some nice expiration times on resources!  This should drastically speed up load times after first visit.

There are a lot of back-end changes in the works, a handful of new features, and some easter eggs, all set to roll out soon!

After the massive shafting at the hands of GoDaddy, we’ve finally moved to LiquidWeb!  Their servers are awesome, the service is amazing, and we won’t be experiencing the insane bouts of lag!

I’ll get the blog moved over some day.

Fucking godaddy fucked up and everything is down.  I tapped the memory limit, it crashed the server, and they have no way of fixing it other than throwing more money at it…

Thankfully my blog is on a different server, so it’s fine.  We’ve been down since 1:45pm EST, and it’s still down…  I had to run an upgrade from a 1GB to a 3GB system, so hopefully we’ll be back up in a couple of hours.  If not, it looks like I’ll be switching to a LiquidWeb server.  It cost more, but at least we’ll be back up.

I’m so freaked out at the moment I don’t know if it’s safe to drive the hour home in the snow.
