My friend likened me to a mad scientist off a disney movie...

"It Works!"
"What's it's purpose?"
"Good Question"

Ive been programming this..thing?...i guess you could call it a website...in php for weeks now. Ive gotten quite a bit done, without really knowing what it's purpose will be. Is that weird? :p I'm coding for the hell of it, mostly because I constantly have new ideas about performing complex operations with less code...I think that's my ultimate hope, that'll come up with a website that's compact, flexible, fully dynamic and customizable, backupable and destroyable.

The only question is...what the fuck am i gonna do with it when its done? :p
I would opensource it, but to me, coding is more of an individual art rather than a group project. I could prolly use it to put all my old fansites back up, and in one place...at least then I could demonstrate my creation :p

oh gawd... and most people spend their friday nights out with friends :p
 
Ugh, i only think about my time programming in college when i want to remember why i choose to go into computer animation instead, lol.
 
Baking/cooking is fun too :) coding's a bit different tho, it's like building a machine and inventing all the parts...at no expense lol. I would cook more often but I need a bigger freezer :( lol.
 
I need a concept for a website, I wanna make decent use of my scripts, not just complete them and stuff em in a ZIP archive like ive done with all the rest :p
 
What does the PHP do? You creating a mini CMS or something?

I'm in the process of moving from procedural PHP to OO PHP. You using OOP?

How about creating some sort of web app? Add some nifty AJAX in and you'll have a winner ..|.
 
A bit of both actually. I started out procedural, but when my scripts got to the size of 1000+ lines of code, I began to appreciate OOP :) This was years ago though...I learnt most of what I know 7 or 8 years ago, and AJAX didn't (or barely) existed then, heck, the big thing was XML, which was relatively new then.

and I am working on a website, i dont know if thats the same as a web app??...im not sure what youre talking about there. Im trying to create a dynamic website that is extremely flexible, I wanna be able to put up different dynamic websites for different purposes and not have to code each time or have them look all alike, and Id like to do it with the same script(s) (so far, everything is in one 400 line script). I always have tons of ideas for sites but im always weary of putting the time into one particular concept in case it doesn't take off, at least this way, I wont have to care, I could try all my ideas.
 
Not sure if a web app (Web Application) has a defined meaning but I think of it as a mix between a web site and a normal computer program. Where you get the responsiveness of a application (AJAX for example) and it does more than just display data. Google, IMO, is the king of Web Apps - GMail, Google Maps, Their office apps are a good example, Google Calendar, YouTube etc etc.

Also sites like Flickr, del.icio.us, Twitter, Lastfm, Digg, Facebook, Basecamp, Technorati. The list goes on and on :D
