| April 30, 2006 - What Happened?
|
This update is to inform all of you that the huge update I promised is coming. There are two factors that have delayed this update. The first is that I have been devoting a lot of time to preparation for my final exams, and the time that I do have to work is limited by my hesitation to try and upload large amounts of data using the college network. The second factor is that my web host is moving to a new server. The good news there is that the server will be faster, so expect there to hopefully be faster download times in the future. I am waiting confirmation from my host to go ahead and continue uploading files, so please be patient. Also, I have began to add new things to both the Downloads and Links pages much more rapidly, so make sure taht you check these pages often to check out the newest additions. That is all I have for you now, but make sure to keep checking back because I can promise you great things from this web site over the next few months.

April 24, 2006 - Huge Update
|
Alright. This is how it is right now. I have uploaded several files to the Downloads page. However, some of these files, pertaining to the SLAX and Slackware linux distributions specifically are too large in size for me to work with right now. So, these files will not all be up and running, until I get home for the summer. However, in the meantime, you can check out the rest of the files that were added, including MySLAX, DBAN, and a few others. Furthermore, I have just added a few new links to the Links page, so feel free to check those out. Lastly, as you can see, I have added a scrolling marque to the top of the site, so that you can quickly find out when each page was last updated. This will be removed, when I have developed a banner, and you will then have to check the top of each page for this information. Until next time, that is what is going on here at MasterJoe.ORG.

April 21, 2006 - A Week Gone By
|
Well, it has been a week, since my last update. A lot has happened in the past week. The first thing I want to mention is that the Links and Downloads pages have been updates yet again. Furthermore, I fixed the Contact page so that it works again. Also, I wanted to mention that I have received an alert from ZDNet News that mentioned the Firefox web browser. According to the article, there are now even more security exploits within the browser. So, I recommend against using it, for the time being. This does not reflect my personal view of the web browser, and I am in no way attempting to detur potential users of Firefox. I am just trying to make sure that people are aware of the security risks and vulnerabilities out there, regardless of the software.

April 14, 2006 - Grow, Grow, Grow
|
The Links page has grown significantly. I received some requests, and chose to evaluate and add the links to the page because they seemed like they would benefit the visitors. This is just another proof that I do listen to the feedback and comments I receive. Also, the Downloads page continues to grow, with new programs being added almost every day. So, just because this page isn't updated doesn't mean that the other pages on the site aren't. Also, you have probably noticed that going to my site takes you directly here, instead of asking you to agree to my Terms of Use. However, they still apply, and can be accessed via the navigation panel above any content page on this site. I will continue to add new content to each page, as I find valuable things to add, so continue to check back frequently.

April 11, 2006 - Downloads-R-Us
|
The Downloads page seems to be growing quite a bit faster than the other web pages. It will actually continue to grow even more, after I decide how to add a couple of things that I would really like to add to it. The other pages will continue to grow as well, especially the Tutorials page. One more note, Microsoft released a lot of Windows patches today, so I advise all Windows users to run Windows Update and download them. These updates patch holes in Internet Explorer, Windows Media Player 10 for Windows XP, and the Windows operating system itself.

April 10, 2006 - Running At 100%
|
Alright. There is now content on each and every page of this web site. So, what does the future hold? Well, not only will I continue to add content to the existing pages, but I will also be creating an examples page, which will contain different programs that I have written in various programming languages such as C, C++, Java, JavaScript, HTML, and assembly language. Also, with summer just around the bend, expect more frequent updates with much more content on all of the pages.

April 1, 2006 - Finally, An Update
|
Well, it has been 9 days, since I have done any work on this site. So, I felt that it was time that I finally get some things done. As you can see, I have decided to remove the Chat page altogether, for the time being at least. Also, there are now files on the Downloads page, as well as some of my written work on the Publications page. I will continue to do my best to update frequently, as well as make sure that the site improves more and more, until it really is the best web site for all PC related help and resources.
