Happy Buy Nothing Day

No new hits in two days! Curses!
Today I set up a prototype system for Cynical Studios Comments Forum. Based on my yet-to-win-an-award Mormegil code, it uses PHP and MySQL to control a comments board much in the manner of this one. Their site gets over 300 hits a day though, so this will be a good test of how well my code stands up under high traffic. They are still looking for an old PC to host the database, donations accepted.
Anyway, it’s good to be able to use my skills and code I’ve already developed. Nice to see how easy it is to twiddle a few bits and apply the exact same code to a different site. It’s not seamless yet; I’d like to have the settings be read by a file and split off different dynamic functions into different pages etc., but it’s looking pretty good. Maybe that could be a project for Christmas break.
In closing, stupid people make me angry.
