Tumblr Competitor! WebiNect Blogs

Going to be making a Tumblr Competitor! Built right in to WebiNect, called 'WebiNect Blogs' which is an app on WebiNect. Sounds pretty promising ;D But I don't see a way to make custom html yet, so the same boring background would have to apply for everyone :(

Maybe I could use Ajax for scroll detection and paginate the event via jQuery.Ajax()? Worked up the code structure in my head, now to code it >:D

Bar = Done.

Ok, so far I've worked up halfish of profile.php, and the top bar. Now going to work on some of the apps cause I'm too lazy to continue with profile.php hehe.

Here's what it looks like so far:

The WebiNect Bar.

Okay, now programming the WebiNect 'bar'. The famous 'bar' on the top of every social network! This'll have the logo link back to home.php, it'll have 'Messages', 'Profile', 'Notifications', and 'Logout'. 

For now, it's just some basic code: 

#bar { position:fixed; top:0px; left:0px; z-index:100; width:100%; background-color:#282828; box-shadow:0px 0px 15px #000; height: 9%; }

Going to end up making it a bit like Twitter's top bar, without the gradient. I hate using images. Pain :P I'll post a screenshot of the bar once it's done! So far it's pretty plain ;P

Social Network Project: WebiNect

WebiNect is a social network I'm planning on creating! It's similar to Facebook, it aims to solve more problems than Facebook does - but it does lack some features that make Facebook so wow. 

I can't program a chat, because I don't have a rack of servers to burn. :( So long polling is out of the question.

So far, I've created a Login, Register (with email activation), Forgot Password script, Home page, forgot password 'places' (no dedicated page).

I'm 4:45hrs in to the project, and I've had loads of ideas. I'm hoping to be able to finish the entire project in under 48 hours. *and beat Mark Zuckerberg ;)*

Project currently hosted on http://webinect.tx2clan.com

Trying to 'sell' it as a Social Platform. Developers can create applications for it, and it'll act as an entity in itself, i.e how the iPhone has apps, this site can have apps! Also, advertisers can advertise on it! ;) $$$$$$$$$$$

I'm liking this so far. I'll tumblr'ify my progress. I'm only counting the hours I've spent programming. :)

CodeProject #2!

TweetStalk!

Uses HTML5/Chrome notifications and the Twitter API to deliver desktop notifications from a specified Twitter user.

Not tied to accounts, so privatized accounts won't work!
