The cake is a lie

New shazow.net

There’s no real point in making an account at the moment. I haven’t had the chance to write any commenting feature yet, but that’ll be the next thing to come.

For now, this will be my blog again.

What this really is (because you can’t really tell since you’re1 not a mind-reading computer-science-appreciating audience) is a brilliantly designed foundation for a modular content management system. It’s the meat for many potentially wonderful creatures.

The big downside to this is that the foundation was so complex and difficult to design and develop, that now I’m all burnt out and don’t have the will to create useful modules for it, like a commenting system, or displaying currently online users, or the like. But luckily, this already has a few benefits that the old shazow.net didn’t have:

1. I have a full, functional, permissions system. That means I can let other people post blogs, and much more later on (like creating groups, structured accounts, limiting accessibility, and so forth).

2. It’s no longer has a feces-coloured colourscheme. Personally, I find this a rather unfortunate drawback, but you people seem to favour the blue and gray.

3. I must say, my new admin UI is pretty slick. :D

Anyways, if you feel that you have something to say here often, then make an account, and I can give you permission to post.

1. This entire entry is directed to my audience consisting of about 3 people. Yay.

P.S.
If you miss the turkey, you can visit it here. That is, until I kill it and eat it.

P.P.S.
If you get a message saying “invalid login/password” or the like, that’s because there were stale cookies left over from the old site. Refreshing should remove them, and all will be well.
