Pacific Coast Sky Diving San Diego, CA June 6, 2006

I'm working on a page that shows off my sky diving at Pacific Coast Sky Diving.

I wore my GPS unit that monitored my altitude, speed, and vitals. Garmin, possibly, wants to use my page to show off on their website. So I have to make this page really good.

I am also in the process of making contact with a water skiing group. I want to hang out with their group, take pics and vids, and network with them.

That is all.

I just worked out a deal with a Brenda Stokes to write articles for StuffVideo.com. The deal just involves compensating her a flat fee for each words she writes for an article. Brenda Stokes has wriiten for many respectable online publications and is dependable since she gets back to me promptly whenever I ask for anything.

I removed all the deadlinks (finally!) from stuffvideo.com. We receive about 30 unique hits a day, so it's a good idea to keep the website clean.

I received my Forerunner 305 today and will put it to a test later this afternoon.

I have visitors from out of town this weekend and next so I won't be able to put in my hours until May 30th, 2006.

I am going to be putting up the pages for Kayaking this week (this is a big summertime thing for San Diego and needs to be done ASAP) if time permits (when the visitors are sleeping hehe)

Programming progress May 7, 2006

I programmed the pages where you can add and view comments. I used ajax for both of the pages for quicker user response. I even got the cool flashing thingy that wordpress has after you submit a post.

I'm still touching up the look and feel of the pages, but I think both pages work well programmatically. The only page where you can leave a comment on is the sunset cliffs sight seeing page. Once I get the look and feel down for the comment pages, I'll have all the pages be comment ready.

I added a privacy statement page and force the user to accept the privacy before registering.

All in all, I'm kind of tired of programming. Programming database applications with AJAX takes longer than without. Normally, I can get these two pages done in an hour without AJAX. With AJAX, it took me a good four hours since debugging AJAX is really difficult since you can't really see what's happening on the server side without programming some sort of debug message logger. I'm too lazy to do that. I think I will work on some videos next for a bit because I think I'm burning out.

I'm out.

Comment on Happy Hours May 3, 2006

Sean, that’s an excellent idea. However, in my opinion, I think we should focus on our original plan and set the outdoors activities as the main priority. We had a discussion about this before and we made an agreement that this is our plan (my fault if I we didn’t make it clear to each other). There are many sites out there that already provide happy hours and deals. One day, after we get our defined priorities done, we can work on the restaurant and happy hour reviews.

Priorities

1) Outdoor activities which includes attractions since it’s mainly outdoors. Data entry and videos.
2) Programming the site and doing the program flow for user interaction
4) Continuous data entry which will include restaurants and happy hours once the first launch has occurred.

I’m programming right now for the site. I plan to go out this weekend and capture some video on site seeing somewhere in San Diego and create the pages.

Ajax and Aquarium of the Pacific and Important Info April 29, 2006

I installed Ajax and Javascript libraries on the server. These libraries are really nice in that it makes it easy to implement ajax with php running on the server side.

I created the page for the Aquarium of the Pacific. After struggling to write a review, I am starting to realize that my writing skills are slowly disappearing. I need to go back to school and learn how to write. The link to the review is at:

We need to start putting dashing in between words for our file. I screwed up and will go back and do it for all the pages one day.

I was viewing site stats and a keyword that users have been using to search is 'san diego paved bike trails' …. this is important…we need to execute our strategy for making the biking pages.
