Working, working, working…

Well you may be wondering why I haven’t been updating the site as much as I usually do and that is because of tons of other work I’ve been doing.

To start, I work at a grocery store most days, stocking shelves and all that fun stuff. I’m looking to buy a new laptop in a few weeks so I can take it out with me and do live blogging if I ever go to some kinds of conventions. (Because ydb’s live-blogging plans kinda fail)

Of course, I’m also working just for the general purpose of getting money.

Additionally, I’m fixing some computers. People are all “heyy let’s break our computers and make Andrew fix it for the lulz” and so they do and in return… I fix them! At least I get some money out of that though and I spread the site’s publicity with our new support system. It’s fun pasting your logo on other people’s computers. =]

Also, I’m working on some “behind-the-scenes” stuff, you may call it. KJ and I have actually yet again started working on “DZACP” which for those of you who don’t know, is a content-management system for websites. Additionally, it provides itself to be a free and easy-to-use software development kit that’ll greatly speed up the amount of time needed for developing control panels for your website with its easy-to-modify source code. We started the project back in 2006 and have been inconsistently working on it. Don’t ever expect a public release, aside from use within future PCS web-based products.

As mentioned above, I’m also working on our site’s new support system. Basically people who have us build or repair their computers and pay for it get assigned a Computer ID and they can use this to “register” it at our site and in return gain access to an online database which includes drivers and software related to your system and some helpful advice also related to any problems you may have been experiencing in the past.  I’ll have more on that later.

Spherack is coming along still… profile system is done and I’ve been continuing to make improvements to what’s already there, including graphics. I’m planning out a “mortar strike” system, where when you get five kills without dying, you get the ability to shoot a mortar at a location you specify, hitting a wide range of targets and doing some pretty sweet damage. Again, I’ll have more on this as I get through it.

That’s pretty much it for now. I’m going to bed because it’s 4:20AM =]

OH, and for the record: I FINALLY made my first Google search at 4AM!!! According to Google’s history tool, I’ve made a search within every hour except for 4AM. So congratulations to me!!!
