Random Thoughts: "Once your born you start getting closer to death"
I completely agree! As soon as you are born, that is when you start to die! Life is just a slow process of dying!

Project Euh!
Funny Site!
Project-Euh! is a hilarious website that actually uses JavaScript in some very interesting ways. The site is pure humor and it will make just about anyone laugh. It is basically a website where you can click a link or button that says "Euh!" and it brings you to a random web page on the site with some silly script. One example is a pong game that can be played with browsers. Four pop up windows show up. One is for score keeping. Then one window is the pong ball that goes back and forth. And there is a window the player can use to hit the floating window back and forth. The computer gets a window that hits the window back to you. Very interesting!
Random Thoughts - From Around the World!
Random Thoughts
Random Thoughts is a web site located at http://randomthoughts.club/ where people can express their random thoughts. It is a micro-blog where users can share their thoughts with other people from around the world.
Strategy
The strategy behind this web site is to make content that is user generated. Each entered random thought generates a new web page.

The website, in general, was built to be viral. Most all the user's actions will result in the application spreading further into the web. The theory behind this is that it will help the website grow.
User Experience
The website was built with user experience in mind. It is easy to use and the user is free to browse and use all the features on the website without having to log-in or provide their e-mail address.
Wikipedia User Page - Adam Cox
Wikipedia - User Generated Encyclopedia Website
Wikipedia is a website with a large encyclopedia built by the visitors to the website. It is "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit."
Wikipedia is built on the Mediawiki free and open-source platform. You can help support this platform by helping to build the platform by fixing and adding the content. You can also support this project by making donations at Wikimedia Foundation.
As a repeated visitor to this site, I have found the content very educational. As a software engineer, I feel that the site lacks code samples. The few samples up there, are very short. But, the site is an encyclopedia and not meant for code samples.
I have contributed several edits to this site and you can find these edits by visiting Adam Cox's Wikipedia User Page. I have not yet added any articles, but I have edited existing articles. Hopefully, by the time you are reading this, I will have contributed some useful articles.
Robots Climbing Walls
Can't say too much about this, but the robot sure is climbing a wall. If public scientists are creating machines that can accomplish this, imagine what is going on in the government laboratories.

Memory Leaks in PHP
There is a huge memory leak in PHP 5.2 and earlier. When objects nest other objects within it with circular reference, the nested object is never unset when un-setting the object that is instantiating the other objects. The solution would be to upgrade to latest version of PHP 5.3 when it is stable, or un-setting all the objects that get instantiated within an object. Some more solutions are proposed at Memory Leaks in PHP. Another author looks at this problem at Memory Leaks in PHP. The author also tries to propose a solution by modifying the PHP internals and decrement the reference count. This is beyond my scope and time constraints me to do this.
PHP user's aborting scripts
ignore_user_abort() ignores user's aborting the execution of a script. This can prevent a system from coming to an unstable state. If a script executes and has two critical operations which depend on each other, then both of these should be executed and not just one of these operations. Use ignore_user_abort(TRUE); to prevent this occurrence.

BlogThis!
The BlogThis feature for Blogger allows people to create links for their website. The links offer parameters that can be sent in to specify the link, title, and content of the Blog. This will undoubtedly help raise inbound links to a website. This is a high factor in search engine rankings. The more inbound links, the higher the website will show. This is called page rank. A page that already has a lot of incoming links has more weight when linking to another page. A page with thousands of inbound links linking to a website will raise the linked to website much higher than a page with few incoming links.
Here is my BlogThis link. Just place it in the "href" of a link in the HTML source:
javascript:window.open('http://www.blogger.com/blog-this.g?u=' + escape(location.href) + '&n=' + escape(document.title), 'blogger', 'toolbar=no,width=700,height=400'); void(0);"

PHP
PHP is a scripting language particularly designed for web development. It can be used for some server administration as well. There are many pros and, unfortunately, many cons for using PHP. Some of the pros are that it is free, open-source, easy-to-use, powerful, easy to find code samples, tutorials, and documentation, and many others. Some of the cons are that it is easy to write "bad" code with, it is slow, it is hard to find out what your code is doing internally, and bugs can potentially exist. PHP is widely used and respected amongst the development community. PHP 5 has the power to be object-oriented and PHP 6 is even heading further in that direction. It is easy to set PHP up on a Linux, Mac, or Windows machine. It works seamlessly with Apache, MySQL, and PostgreSQL.

The Chat Room Blogger Application!
Wow! This is actually an amazing idea! I was going to do something similar to this on my Chizat website, but never got around to it. This is a nice blogger application!
Drupal 5.8-dev CMS
Drupaul is a CMS (Content Management System) that is very powerful and easy to use. It can save a lot of time with all the core system and third-party modules. A large Web 2.0 website can be built fairly quickly with Drupal. Some of the cons are that it is a large platform and can be slow if not used properly. Any custom PHP, MySQL, third-party modules/themes can easily turn into an issue for the entire system. The environment for developing modules allows easy and deep integration of the system, but can limit your reach. The system is easy to set-up and build a basic website and it allows much more advanced development. It is overall a great free and open-source system!
