October 29th, 2007 Working on Alternatives

I thought I should make it public that I’m working on a new subsection of this domain called Alternatives. It’ll be listed under the Visitor / For you section.

What’ll this be about, exactly?

I’ll start universally with this. Over the years you need free and useful scripts and programs (because face it, you don’t want to pay for something you can technically get for free). I want to write a section that (at first) will list common popular scripts and places to use free, better versions.

So for example, you need a remotely hosted guestbook for your website.

Ditch the crappy Bravenet guestbook you have for something better, like Zeroweb’s guestbook service or Getstring.

And from there I’ll go on to self-hosted scripts, and programs for Windows. Then for Mac OS X. And maybe if I feel frisky I’ll hit up sections for Linux.

I’ve been thinking about this for a while. Sounds fun. Alternatives pages will be comment-able, by the way. So if you have suggestions you can drop them in and I’ll edit my pages as needed.

Edit: I had no idea that the WordPress team made a forum script, too. Very cool.
