We are back online. Chris spent the last month building the new servers and writing all the code.
We have not had a lot of time to add new content but thats coming up next. If you look around you will find some new stuff here and there (Take a look to the left side of your browser - that's where the new stuff goes. Also, be sure to check out our pictures - we have taken almost a thousand new ones in the past six months and we have uploaded some of them already.
Chris has promised to share some of the programs he's writing for work. They will make it easy for all of us to add and make changes to our pages. He says that vistors are going to be able to add stuff too. That might be interesting.
That's all for now. Stop back soon so you can see what we are making!
Family gossip, web site updates (and more pictures!) and a screaming yell of Happy New Year! from Chris, Meg and Tori.
We had a very nice, quiet Christmas - just the three of us - which was very nice. Tori has been on winter break since December 21, Chris decided to take a break from the never ending quest for new work and Meg spent a lot of time putting together an amazing bunch of Christmas surprises behind everyone's back.
Over the next few months the Rocklizard web site will undergo a complete makeover.
After months of planning and many late night design discussions, Chris and Meg have finally decided that it is time to update and modernize their home on the web.
- Chris needs a new site that better showcases his consulting business.
- Now that Meg is an active partner in the business and a content creator, the site needs to show off some of her awesome talents.
- The site needs to better support the needs of an extended family that wants to know what's going on in the life of Chris, Meg and Tori.
- Chris and Meg want to use the site as an online portfolio to show off their skills and wares and create new business.
Those are just a few of the reasons. There are many more. Most important though, Chris and Meg enjoy working together on projects, learning new stuff and sharing their interests with the world!
What's Next?
Look for new features and content as well as cool web applications and services that will make this site easier to use, more useful for friends and family and easier for Chris and Meg to maintain.
Most importantly, watch as Meg makes Chris move his experiments and tests to more appropriate places, rework and reorganize his consulting projects and - under Meg's watchful eye - use his immense pool of design and programming talent to create a feature rich, fun web site without a single blinking LED simulation, useless web control or weird cookie download (what's a cookie doing here anyway?)
Meg will be the first to admit that Geek pays the bills (usually) but it does not belong on the home page of a personal or business web site. If you find anything here confusing or overly complex, call Meg. It probably means that Chris is breaking curfew and coding at 3 AM again. A taste of the whip and a day or two using dial-up should straighten him right out. Are you listening Chris?
The Rocklizard site will be the place where Chris and Meg try out new features, web technologies and web-based services. Rocklizard will be the test bed, online portfolio and demo site for projects and services that Chris offers in his software consulting business.
And to keep the promises made to nearly every family member, Chris and Meg are going to spend the first month or two adding photo galleries. Keep an eye out for some really cool pictures, artwork and - as promised - the ever growing collection of family photos!
