This site is powered by Monkeys, and not just the tree-climbing kind. No, we also have code and ninja monkeys working around the clock to keep things running here. Our core monkey team type away on their ergonomic keyboards all day so that I will have content to post here. After all, being an American I’m not smart enough to do that kind of stuff myself. In exchange, I let them use my SSN and Driver’s licence to do whatever it is they do on the weekends. Sadly, Because of the Patriot Act (and a past affiliation with “terrorist monkeys”) they were denied their own application.
As a member CodeXplorer I had little trouble getting these monkeys to help out with finding some special cows. With the cattle-shaking invention of “MooTools” my monkeys now come with free milk. Which you might notice - as the occasional spill causes stuff around here to disappear every now-and-then. If you are using a lactose intolerant browser, you will find that our Monkeys will downgrade the presentation of this site so you don’t have to deal with Mootools.
In addition, my monkeys use XFN (Xtra Fun Names) to tag content and links to cool sites. Because plain links just aren’t as cool.
This site as been tested using PC (Pepsi Cola) and some cheesy Mac with both Firewolfs and India Exporter. (There was another browser I wanted to try also - but my friend took it on his trip to Africa…)
We also make it a priority to test portable phones, so if you have extra minutes please send us your phone and we promise to test it with this site - and whatever else your remaining minutes allow. Around here, disability is very important in the design process and we want to make sure our site is fully disabled to you.
Unfortunately, our Monkeys never made it very far in arithmetic. So they chose a simple host that they could understand - 1 + 1.com 1and1.com for the primary server and a drunk dismased dream-like host for our other one. At any point in time this site is using one or the other (or something else).
If you ever find this site has blown up or something please try the following steps as outlined by our tech department.
- Declare jihad against <tables>
- Refresh your browser
- Feed the Monkeys
- Restart Windows
- If you are on a mac - restart someone else’s windows
- Bribe the Monkeys
- Send hate mail
- Stop wasting my bandwidth with your browser.
If all else fails, swam my (1 + 1 = 2) hosts with zerglings.
More About the the System
Tumblr, Twitter, Flickr, Last.fm, Disqus, Delicious, and more handle all the content you see on this site! I don’t use a CMS at all. All the Web Service (API) Handling is done by my PHP Framework MicroMVC. Which can spit out pages faster than any other system on the web (check the numbers in the source code).
hmm…. it seems I have run out of stuff to say - or rather you ran out of stuff to read. So now it is time for you to go click on some shiny button somewhere…
This is only a test comment. I use this to see how well you're comment-system works.
