Version 4.0

The New TehJoey is officially launched. You may have been noticing over the last few days, when layouts were switching back and forth. But this is more than just a layout change, which is what my last one and the one before that really was.

For this I decided on something different. Recently I came to the conclusion that my programming skills are stronger than my design skills. I like the programming aspect better- functionality, performing certain tasks, etc. So that what I focused on here. The layout is simple, but I feel it is good. It’s clean and easy to read. However, the focus is on some new features. I am now coming close to 300 posts. With the way my category and archiving system is set up, finding stuff isn’t easy. So, taking a page from Del.icio.us, Flickr, and Binary Bonsai, I am going with ‘tags’ instead of categories. Really, they are kinda the same. But with tags, I can add more to each post, make it easier for users to find something by topic. I am currently going through my posts, adding more tags to each post.

Secondly, after being allowed to post comments on LifeHacker, I found I REALLY REALLY like they way their comments were handled. Between them, and Mike Industries with the comment preview, I came to the conclusion I wanted that too. So with some AJAXness, I did. Maybe I will fill you in on how i did it at a later date.

I will more than likely post again on the new layout. For now, if you have a suggestion or find a bug, you can report it on the About Page. Later!
