Additional Site Features

Web applications suck. Interesting, since I'm typing into one right now. Just can't seem to break free from the Web 2.0 bubble. GMail, Blogger, Picasa... yet I have to roll my own development backend using a bunch of different things. It's just not fair.

I just put the Subversion repository browser back up. It's far better than it was a year ago when I first used it. I'm also moving the basic development toolkit list to the Forum. I don't think I'll put much into Joomla for a while longer, since no one seems to use it. It's good for super-global site news at least. Who knows, with the Joomla! 1.5 stuff in the community cooker who knows what cool tools will pop up? JFusion is one that's coming into its own, though it needs more work.

phpBB is nice, far better than Fireboard. I can't really blame Fireboard, however. I respect the heck out of both development teams. One just has a better product at the moment, that's all.

Why did I futz around with all these web things? Because no one has given me direction in the Tango project.
