The other day I was fiddling around with how we will eventually keep Quincy’s site all intact once it is no longer hosted on a web server. There are a few options out there and it shouldn’t be too terribly difficult. One item I had overlooked was the photos. When I changed over to using the new gallery, that was something that I would not be able to replicate offline. I spent some time trying to figure out a new way (I know, crazy) to standardize the photos and allow me to pull them all offline too. I completed about 99% of the work this morning.
The solution was to install another web server application called plogger. It now takes care of the imaging needs for Quincy’s site, and I can use it offlline when the time comes. You should use the site as usual. I have changed the links to point to the new galleries and whatnot. If you find any broken ones, just send me a message. I like to find software that is free, easy to use, nice to look at, and easy to use and did I mention free?
We don’t know when Quincy’s playground will cease in its current form, but as Quincy gets older, he might want to do something different with it. Granted, that is a long way away, but I like to have the ducks in a row for when that time comes. It’ll be neat to be able to see his web site years from now. Of course, as technology changes and software evolves, I’m sure I’ll have to come up with something different down the line. Yup, gotta love the IT world.
