I've decided many things lately.

I've decided many things lately. Entroducing is actually my favorite DJ Shado CD now, not Private Press as I've stated to others. Second of all, Wilco is damned incredible, and I love Supergrass. Where were half these artists a year or two ago? Of course I had Endtroducing summer after Freshmen year, and I thought it was too slow (go figure). Back then I associated volume and tempo with quality. Such incredible ignorance.

Well, there are two new sites to the TheSpork.NET family that I'm not quite sure I'm supposed to give away or not yet, because I'm not sure if either sites are considered gold status or not. But, umm, I helped a chap set up a website here on TheSpork.NET, his name is Herbie. You'll find some crazy schizophrenia stuff on there. Also, basik finally bought his AbsenceOfDesign.com site. I don't think he's posted anything yet, and ignore the stuff I wrote on there for him until he does put his site up. But expect great things!

Lastly, this post turns out not be very bloggish at all ... except the second paragraph. Lastly, TheSpork.com soon will have it's last scripts moved over to .NET, and the .NET login structure moved over onto the .com's storage. So what will become of the .NET? I'm going to actually rewrite the login structure of all of my hosted sites ... right now thespork.com, basik.thespork.com, jo.thespork.com, herbie.thespork.com, and probably soon absenceofdesign.com all use the sporkscript stuff to post. Problem is, they're all using seperated databases. I want to merge all that information into one database. For instance, Jo or Basik can have an account (ONE account, not two) for thespork.com and their own sites to post on, with full access to news posts. That same login then, will have rights to post comments as a .NET login on the other person's site. Also, .net's own news page will simply be a collection of all the news posts from every site brought onto one screen. And somehow, the trickiest part (it'll involve some sort of challenge response encryption passport.net similiar style authentication [you caught me, I have no idea what I just said]) thespork.net will do the authenticating for each of the other sites. Oh, and I'm going to somehow write user functions that basik.thespork.com compiles and links from thespork.net, for example. It's hard to explain, but basically in my code I could call like thespork.net.users.authenticate(basikuser,basikpass) from within basik.thespork.com. Basik.thespork.com would not have an authenticate function defined anywhere, but it can call it from thespork.net's libraries. Yeah, techie stuff.
