For a while now I’ve been thinking about updating this design to give it a more web 2.0 feel. I updated the header and the footer to do exactly that. Al it is still work in progress I pushed this new design out already. This are the things that are changed:

• New header/footer look & feel
• Changed the width of the content to fit into a 960px grid
• Reduced the size of this WordPress theme
• Did some code improvement by removing not used code

Things that are still on the drawing board are:

• Make this design xhtml 1.1 strict compliant
• Move the graphics to sprites
• Increase the speed of the site
• Enable caching

That is it for the new stuff. A while back I found out about the way back machine. This website indexes(copies) websites and stores them in a huge archive. Of course I directly checked this url and since 2000 I have a presence there. Check out how my site used to look. Actually the design of the site is really nice.

I also found some really old pascal code. It is funny to see how programmers do things when they don’t know how to use arrays(this is almost 15 years back). I would store the data in a file and then would read it back line by line. I solved this issue of not having(knowing about) arrays by reading and writing in a file line by line How cool is that! Wow 15 years… A lot has happened since then:

• Got several diplomas, degrees and thank you’s
• Owned several cars
• Spent time in Indonesia, Suriname, Singapore, Malaysia
• Visited even more countries
• Used up a lot of girlfriends
• Had dinner over 5000 times
• Went about 45000 times to the toilet

For the next 15 years. What I’ll do I don’t know, yet. Here is a Youtube video which is inspiring.

I wonder what will happen in the next 15 years(I’ll be really old then)… One thing that will happen soon is my graduating. For the rest it is up to life!
