PSEC: Implementing the Protocol
October 7, 2011Read moreSUMMARY: After defining the rudimentary command protocol for loading and saving data, I have to implement at least the “init” command to provide data to the Javascript side of things. That means implementing a simple command building interface with an optional serial command queue, which forces each command to complete before the next command is sent.

Productivity WebApp Notes
October 6, 2011Read moreThe past two weeks I’ve been teaching myself the rudiments of Web Application Programming with HTML/CSS/Javascript, documenting the experience in my Code Process Journal on the Productivity WebApp Project Page.

Process junkies may enjoy reading about the early-stage development cycle, which is why I’m mentioning it now that I’ve gotten to what feels like a good point. Newbie developers may find the inner dialog with myself interesting as I comment on the challenge of bolting a web app on top of WordPress, but I make no guarantees :)

October 6, 2011Read moreI’m pretty lucky that my main website at davidseah.com is indexed frequently. However, I’ve wondered if the sub-blog content was being indexed at all.
I’ve just replaced my Google Sitemap plugin with Better WordPress Google XML Sitemaps, which promises not only to be multisite-friendly, but boasts of speed advantages over similar plugins. It also can include links to the sub-blog sitemaps within the root site. I’m making this entry to mark the day and time that I implemented this change. I’m curious to see if search engine traffic or rankings change at all.
