A product from last weekend boredom – a PHP based message board with jQuery based UI and mySQL database.  My aim was to create a very simple message board that is easy to use  and easy to implement accross my web projects.  I’ve also added a little security with Captcha to reduce spam.

What you need:
- A PHP enabled webserver with mySQL database. You need to set this up first.

To install:
- Configure the config.php file
- Run the data.sql file from your mySQL database
- Upload all files into your webserver and you’re done

It’s now the end of the year! Time really flies and it feels that I haven’t accomplished any of this year’s plan(not that I have anything written anyway).  It’s the December break now and I’m out of office for 2 weeks.  Since now that I have a little free time, I feel obligated to update this blog.

No web project (except in the office) going on but I did receive some proposal. So sorry people but I really don’t have the time and commitment to handle one at the moment. The only project that i would take right now will be those free ones that don’t have any datelines – personally challenging and fun with no strings attached or obliged to someone. I do have some projects to go but knowing how a procrastinator I am, it’s gonna be a while before I would start any.

Got myself a 50mm lens for my DSLR recently.  This lens produced a much sharper and amazing depth of field(ref image above) that I hardly use my 18mm-55mm anymore. A bit pricey then its older model  but well worth the money. Don’t be surprised if I update my Flickr more than this website. These days I’ve been taking a lot oh photos during my leisure time, can’t wait to take the family out on a vacation!

Well that’s all for now. Hopefully the next post will be on some work or project :p
