The Whiskey Web Dev

A busy intellectual weekend you might say. Of course by that statement I mean instead of gawping at the monitor playing World of Warcraft I actually got round to some web developing. Nothing huge, just something out of sheer respect I had to do.

My old SG-1 site I discovered a few days ago from an old web counter, that is actually still tracking, hit around 40,000 unique hits recently. Not alot considering its been around since late 1999, but the crowning achievement of the projects I have messed around with. Since discovered that I decided to give the whole thing a rehash. Sadly coding each page lovingly with notepad just to add a quick news flash just wasn't feasible anymore. Anyway the links on the side, so take a look.

I've also added an ancient version of my personal site I found on an old archive CD, you know when I such a small amount of HDD space I used to back things up.

Have also spent the past few days (apart the work thing) downloading and watching DS9s final season, and in my opinion the ultimate triumph of Trek.
Disturbingly I have noticed the final episodes of each series seem to be getting bloodier as time goes on.

Example:

TOS ending: Cheesy laughs and knee slapping
TNG ending: Cheesy officers poker game
VOY ending: Returns home, new child born
DS9 ending: Weyon killed, Damaar killed, Dukat killed, Winn killed, Sisko killed
ENT (alleged) ending: Trip killed, its all just a holodeck recreation of Rikers.

*Disclaimer: I do realise VOY came after DS9, however ordering it properly would make me look foolish

My head hurts, I need sleep.
