| Aug 2006 | Updated my Curriculum Vitae and added some information to the "About Me" page. |
| Jul 2006 | Added automatic resizing and dating functionality to picture uploading. There are no visible changes when browsing, but it's *much* easier to upload new pictures: it used to be a matter of manually resizing the image and creating a thumbnail, then specifying the size of each, entering a 16-character timestamp, and finally uploading everything using a complicated form. Now, I just select the image from my computer and the rest is done automatically. |
| Feb 2006 | I added some background images that are hopefully the beginning of making the site look a little more artsy. |
| Jan 2006 | My Curriculum Vitae has been updated, and (for better or worse) hyperlinks have been added. |
| Aug 2005 | My bio has been updated. |
| Jun 2005 | After about a week of down-time, the server is up and running again. Although all my files were preserved, I had to make several permissions changes and code changes to accomodate the new software. |
| Jun 2005 | A few pictures of my new microscope were posted. |
| Jun 2005 | Several pictures of April and my new rental house were posted. |
| May 2005 | A dozen pictures from my classroom have been added under 'pictures.' |
| May 2005 | My TAPP portfolio was added under 'writing.' |
| Apr 2005 | I've done some significant editing to make the site valid XHTML. This has no noticeable effect upon the site's appearance, but it makes me feel better. In the process, I discovered how much I hate different character encodings. |
| Apr 2005 | I'm adding pictures! Let me know if you have some that you think might belong here. |
| Apr 2005 | There are several new items available under "formal writing." |
| Apr 2005 | The site index has been tweaked to make it (I hope) a little better-looking. (The general layout is a Gmail "Inbox" clone. It took me a loooong time to figure out exactly how to do this.) |
| Apr 2005 | The "favorite quotes" page is now generated from a database. |
| Apr 2005 | I created a database to keep track of all these site changes. :) You're looking at it right now. |
| Apr 2005 | Created a file called 'blackhelicopters.php'. If I
told you what it did, it wouldn't really be appropriately named now,
would it? But it's out there. And it does something. Something
bad. |
| Mar 2005 | Added code that allows me to edit blog comments via
html forms. It's functional but not user-friendly. (Fortunately, I'm
the only user so that doesn't much matter.) |
| Mar 2005 | I changed my "contact me" link from my actual address and phone number to a form. When someone submits info from this form, it is e-mailed to me and also added to a database, thereby immortalizing it. |
| Mar 2005 | Released the new site layout. The biggest changes:
Blog entry titles are now listed from the main page, and navigational
links now display on the right side of every page. |
| Mar 2005 | Continued working on the new site layout. |
| Mar 2005 | Began working on a complete overhaul of the website's
layout. The biggest change: Individual blog entries will be linked
from the main page. |
| Mar 2005 | Big surprise: I've been tweaking the formatting of my
blog over the past few days. I've also been adding quotes. |
| Mar 2005 | Slightly modified the way the blog is formatted. |
| Mar 2005 | Made vast improvements to the blog, especillay including the ability to leave
comments. |
| Mar 2005 | One of my students overheard me say that I had a
website today, so I had to go back and edit all the cuss words out of
my blog. (I rather not lose my certificate to teach in the State of
Georgia.) This required that I write some code to be able to edit
existing blog entries, so that's a good thing. |
| Mar 2005 | With all my blog posts displaying
on the same page, it became obvious to me that the page would quickly
become large and unfriendly. So I added an automatic id to each blog
entry, and modified the code to display a menu of entries to choose
from. In addition, now each entry now has it's own unique url. Not
bad for 30 minutes of work from an amateur. :) |
| Mar 2005 | My blog is up and running! |
| Mar 2005 | Added custom page titles to each page. Wrote most of
what I'll need to start my blog. |
| Mar 2005 | I rewrote the Bat Cadets page of the Batfolio
and made it interactive. It uses a MySQL database and a good bit of
PHP. |
| Feb 2005 | In a rare midnight frenzy, I have finally completed
my high school portfolio! |
| Feb 2005 | Worked on my high school
portfolio. |
| Feb 2005 | Worked on my high school
portfolio. |
| Feb 2005 | Continued working on my high school portfolio. It looks like
that's going to take several evenings. |
| Feb 2005 | Restructured the index a
little bit. Added a new page to organize my writing. Began
(re)adapting my high school portfolio
to go online. Changed my "résumé" to my "curriculum vitae" cuz that looks and sounds
better. :) |
| Feb 2005 | Added my AMCAS personal
statement. I fleshed out my plans for the site on my "to do" page. |
| Feb 2005 | Restructured and expanded my quotes page. Changed the message on the index. Added my résumé. |
| Feb 2005 | Added my "favorite quotes"
page. |
| Feb 2005 | Added a copy of what I see
when I go to butzon.com from work: This page has been blocked because
it contains "pornography." Ha! Yeah right. Good stuff. |
| Feb 2005 | Tweaked the formatting. Changed the index text.
Added my picture to the index. Added the "Who am I?" section. |
| Feb 2005 | Added a style sheet plus a
validation link. No content yet, but it's pretty now. Added a small
bit of PHP to do routine page formatting. Nothing special. This file
tracking the site's changes was created. :) |
| Feb 2005 | Removed the old wedding information (which was over
a year and a half old). Replaced it with a brief "under-construction"
type message. Validated the pages as xhtml strict and added the
validation link at the bottom. |
| May 2003 | Old webpage was removed. Created a no-frills
webpage containing all the pertinent information for my wedding in
June. |
| Jan 2002 | Inception of this site (as far as I can remember). At
one point between 2002 and 2003, the page was fairly nice. It
contained my résumé and a bunch of stuff I wrote in
highschool, as I recall. |
