Looking At George
You can’t see him in this picture, but she was
carefully watching George as he hung around on
my desk while I took the picture. She likes
the cats.

So I didn’t write a post last night, mostly because I was really tired at 1:30am when I decided to go to bed and didn’t really feel like writing at the time.

With that said, I have as of this morning uploaded the new MZ Online site to its public test location (which is still undisclosed), and so far so good. I wrapped up the content stuff (for the most part) late last night, and I only have a few random things (decorative pictures) to finish up in that department before it can really go live.

I’m to the validation point now, so the next phase will be to validate every page of the new site to ensure it’s all written correctly and ‘standardized.’ What does that really mean for the average consumer? Not much, but it means a lot in the development arena because sticking to standards generally gets you the closest cross-browser (and device) look.

I still have to work on the printer stylesheet (so things print properly if necessary), so it’s getting close now. I’m not really sure how much I’m going to get done in the next few days since we’re going to be busy (and will be seeing SPAMALOT on Thursday evening)…but I’ll try to keep in contact a little bit here as time allows.

For anyone curious (coming here from Flickr to figure out why there’s no new pictures), it’s due to the fact that my camera dock will be unavailable for the next few days so I won’t be able to [easily] upload new pictures for a while. Hopefully that will be resolved by Saturday and I have some time.

That’s all for now. Until next time…
