Hi!

It’s been awhile and I’ve been mulling over what to do with this blog, and now I think I have the answer.  I’m going to turn it into something really personal, where I will post things that I will want to write about.  So, keeping that in mind my range of topics can go from my school to the newest hottest thing in technology.

Also, I intend to use this blog at the same time to promote Small Blogs Network so keep an eye on that!

Thanks,

Eric Huang

Well, I haven’t written for this blog in awhile.  I really haven’t felt the urge nor the inspiration to write a long post.  But, now feel the need to update this site for whatever readers there are.

1)  Well, I turned 16!  w00t!  Soon I can get my license
2)  I’ve finally gotten around  and fixed the submit form on this site
3)  If you have noticed the portfolio link now goes to my portfolio site
4)  I’m planning on shifting the focus of this blog so that I can write on topics that more interest me and that come easier for me to write
5)  Check my portfolio for a new update on the About page with contact details and the whole shabang!
6)  Finally, if you haven’t already checked out SmallBlogsNetwork, you should do so now

Currently I stand at a crossroads. Imagine, your standing in the middle of a 4-way intersection in the middle of nowhere. Grass and fields strech for miles and there’s just a road sign on the side of the road. And on the sign, there’s a bunch of arrows pointing down several different roads with different decisions I’ve made and have yet to make in my life. Life is as they say, choices. It all boils down to what choices you make in your life. Everything counts, everything matters.

I’ve been thinking of creating a new project for a long long time…  Small Blogs Network, is my next project I intend to build.  The main purpose of this new site will be to help small blogs to attract visitors to their sites.  The main reason I’m intending to do this is further expand my knowledge of CSS/XHTML and at the same time learn how to use a CMS to accomplish this.

I’m still in the design phase, however once I come up with a draft mockup, I’ll ask some of my peers to give some advice on it.  In the meantime I’ll also looking for a solution that I could use to power the backend behind the web gallery.  Hopefully I will find one that will fit my needs.  After that is all done, I intend to put the site online using my current host, Media Temple (Who I really liked their service) and on the domain smallblogsnetwork.com.  Also, I’ve already registered the .com TLD so no stupid spammers can take it before me!  Hah, take that!  Anyhow, if you have any suggestions or comments or just want to get your blog on the front page as soon as it’s finished, send me an email!  Use my contact form on this page, thanks!

This is a sad day indeed. Who in their right mind goes and does these sort of things? (CNN Link) And I thought the police checked MySpace and other social sites nowadays… Geez, how far can these go? One day after I left Seattle for Victoria, Canada, there was a shooting no less then 3 blocks away from my hotel! Some guy decided to pull a hate crime and held hostage several women who worked for the local Jewish federation. I had even drove by that building several times days before the incident… (more…)

Cool, I did submit my blog to several galleries before hand, but that was before I got it XHTML valid. It won’t however ever be CSS valid becuase of the hacks and whatnot I have to use to get the site working in IE. However, it is still pretty damn cool that I was featured in CSS Mania! My site recieved a score of 7 which seems on the good to average area. Hurrah!
