Sorry to all you who read regularly, I havn’t updated in over a month, as i have been on vacation. Normal posting should return

In other news, you may notice the forums have dissapeared. This is because i got tired of spam accounts registering. Those of you who had old accounts can still use them on the site. I may relaunch the forums again with something else, but that is far in the future.

In the mean time, i have been playing a number of games, including Mass Effect, Geometry wars, and a few others. Reviews pending.

This week, I have rolled out a few new features. Nothing major, but small things designed to improve your experience on this site. Things such as email subscriptions, related posts, Microsoft points icon, and a return of sharing.

Following my review of the new Facebook design (New Facebook design review), I am writing a review of the new DeviantArt design. The new design is quite pretty, it improves areas that needed improvement drastically over v5, such as the message center and other areas of the site still using the v4 theme.

e3 logoOne concern many gamers had with the new Xbox360 interface was their ability to use themes. Major Nelson has dissapated any stresses with a recient blog post, revealing what the themes “could” look like. The current preview looks really nice, so thats probably what microsoft will do.

I think that is a great improvement over the current theme system. The current system only changes the background, and as such can render text and other UI elements hard to use. The new theme looks as if it will not only change backgrounds, but change text color, images, and other UI elements.

e3 logoToday was the first day of E3, and microsoft kicked it off with a bang, revealing many things at their press conference. Things from innovative new games to xbox live features. The new games, while cool looking, don’t really pike my interest. However, the xbox live update looks like it will be amazing.

One more tweak. The time is now displayed more prominently for posts, this is to make it easier to browse via date.

The update took a bit longer than i had anticipated, so there were some times when things may not have looked right. Rest assured that everything has since been fixed. However, if you see a bug, please tell me in the comments on this post.

Well, to make my site appear better, and more like what i had originally invisioned, i have spent the afternoon tweaking my css and php files to generate the newish version of the site. You should see the changes immediatly, but if you don’t, i will explain them. First off, each post now appears in a little box. The title is at the top, metadata is below it, content is in the center, and comment and view information is at the bottom. The comment count has been moved to the bottom of the post, to remedy some complaints about the word wrap eating it. Along it joins a new feature, views. These count how many times a post is viewed. They do not count my views.

Hope you guys enjoy these features.

Updating a blog can be a hassle. It involves going to your site, going to the admin interface, going to the write pane, then filling out a form, finally submitting it. There is a better way. It is the desktop blog editor. One of my favorite is BlogDesk.
