I added more dynamic instructions plus fixed the memory submission interface. You can also read the memories by genre. I am meeting with Jamie Moses at 10am to show him the project and talk about server space.

1. Now when you roll over a memory it alerts you that you can click to read one.
2. You can now only add one grey new memory location at a time. To delete a selected location, just click on it.
3.Fixed cloud layout problem.

I just saw that buffalopundit wrote about the rememberbuffalo project.

Remember Buffalo Project
November 14th, 2005

Paul Visco is a computer whiz who designed the elmwoodstrip.com blog/journal interface from scratch.

His most recent project is something called "Remember Buffalo". Using google maps, it enables people to select locations and enter personal memories that correspond with a certain location on the map. Try it out.

Quoted from: BuffaloPundit

I cannot wait until it begins to grow. Soon we will be adding the primary doc section and we will collectmore primary docs than they have at the historical society. There are lots of (e:matthew) and (e:jim)'s photos in there too!

I upgraded the memory interface It is pretty effective now. Once I collect some more memories I will throw in a search engine. As soon as I decide on a final server solution I will also begin the primary doc upload section.

Please add some memories.

I will be working on the primay doc section next but for now, the interface to add memories has been upgraded with the following features.

1. You can visit the memories on your wap enabled cell phone using the beta mobile interface at rememberbuffalo.org/wap
2. The genre select list now shows you how many other memories have been assigned to specific genres.
3. submit reports the total number of memories that have been submitted.
4. The submit page displays 10 random memories from the total pool each time you visit.
3. The code is there to search by genre although I am not releasing the intertface for it until there are more memories. Currently, we are around 20.
4. All memories must include at least a location, a title, one genre, the year(s) it occurred and a memory.
5. Memories have been limited to Buffalo proper with boundaries of the Niagara River on the westside, Tifft Farm area to the south, Kenmore Avenue to the North and Bailey Avenue to the East. These boundaries might change over time but for now I would like to focus on the city itself.
