New Website Done

Just finished the website for Harvard College Consulting Group (http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/hccg/).

Pretty straightforward website, simple CSS-based div design, with PHP calling the header, top menu, left menu, and footer. Google analytics integrated in the footer, and both the CSS and XHTML validated with W3C the first try!

Most importantly, it should be amazingly easy to edit for future classes of Harvard consultants! Just have to modify the page in question, and there’s a clearly visible div called “content.” Everything ugly is hidden in the PHP headers and footer. Yay for bloat-free, non-CMS websites!

Website Update

Didn’t do much today besides the standard bicycle ride, but last night:

  • Converted the static pages to PHP so I could have an easily modifiable header and footer.
  • Made a mobile version of my website, self-hosted except for the Wordpress blog.
  • Changed the fonts on my blog a bit to make it more readable.

I suppose it wasn’t too hard, but all that time put in and the website…looks the same! Backend changes are mainly for personal satisfaction (and a little bit of optimization).
