Under every user's userpic is the Journal Overview and Journal Dots link. I updated them and fixed them so that they are both finding the styles again.

Joural Overview is the title, link to and first 200 words of every journal for that user. Mine might take a while to load on a slow computer because I have around 2000 entries.



The journal dots are a quick and easy way to visualize you old entries and flip though all the old journals you wrote. The ones you visit get black borders so you know you already saw them. Orange ones are ones with categories. The red ones have not been categorized.



If you switch to month view you can see the journal dots listed in a per month fashion which gives you an idea of when you wrote the most.

I was going through some stuff today when I found this old picture of estrip in 2003, when it was pretty much my journal and my personal friends. Wow, how much it has grown since then. Here we are more than 2 million words later.

This is about the RAM post [inlink]paul,4143[/inlink] I wrote yesterday. Thanks (e:jenks) and (e:uncutsaniflush) for donating to the RAM drive, you guys are awesome. Should I name it the jenks-uncut chip or the uncut-jenks pic!? lol

If anyone else can donate I would appreciate it. Just click on the donate button above the lastest journals list. You can donate with paypal.

In response to (e:ajay)'s comment about ditching the motherboard for one that takes DDR RAM. The motherboard I have already has 1GB of RIMM and dual xeons in it that I don't really want to pull out because they are working and happy in it. It also seems so sad to just get rid of it, it is a huge $450 piece of plastic and metal and has a lot of life left in it. I can't justify it environmentally. But definately, the next one will not have RIMMS.

[size=m]historical background[/size]
Here is a little history of the machine that is (e:strip). In 2002 I started working on my MFA at UB and was working hard on Virtual Reality and 3D. I was determined to have a really powerful machine with the latest graphic card and processors. At the time I bought the motherboard, it was the only dual processor motherboard I could find with AGP 8x which I needed for 3D at the time. RDRAM was also really popular and fast (6400MB/s) back in 2003.

Sadly enough, that mega fancy graphic card (ATI firgGL X1 256MB ) now lives its outdated life in a cardboard box because the server just didn't need to server web pages. Anyone want to buy it?

It felt really strange downgrading to the new consumer grade video card I got at compusa, but I figured the less complicated, the less that could go wrong and the server definately is not a graphics workstation anymore.

Slowly, I started to realize how expenive 3D is. It is a never ending cycle of buying the latest greatest hardware and software. I lost patience for 3D design and moved to web. By 2003 I decided to make (e:strip) as a class project for my Virtual and Online communities class. It needed a server and I decided I could repurpose the one that I was using for 3D. The problem is that I could never seem to afford the connection. I tried to host it at home with my adelphia connection but serving a site is against their TOS agreement and would have been a constant battle with home internet usage taking up the whole pipe. Sometime (e:matthew) can make Azureus take the whole internet down. So instead, each month I paid for it to be hosted elsewhere. When it was tiny in 2003 it only cost $7.99/month for the first couple months. As it started to grow I ended paying $40.00/month for a virtual server space.

Then just a month or so ago, Jamie Moses from Artvoice offered to let me host my server there and now whenever you type something or use the site, you are actually just using my computer which is living in their basement.

Anyhow, so I think it is a waste to just throw it out?!

The site has been transfered to the new server. I am still leaving the old one up for a bit just in case. Unfortunately, elmwoodstrip.com.org has not fully transfered everywhere. I believe in some places it has. In the mean time you can use mobl.us which you will be automatically redirected to when you visit elmwoodstrip.org/com. All three are the same web site. At least for now.

So play around with it and send me a site email if there are any problems.
