Kick Off! :: (4) 04. September 2003
Hello fellow websurfer! Yes, you are reading the very first weblog entry @ www.embege.com!
From now on i'll post here from time to time about my life and other online happenings. If you haven't seen it yet, this blog is available in rss format and older postings can be reviewed here. Comments are possible too of course! And I am very happy about every single one! :-)

I am planning to create a more userfriendly flash-powered interface for this, so check back often. Infact, it's about ready now it just needs some graphical touching!
Also, as long as there are holidays, i have a couple of other things up my mind:

  • A flashy rss-feed reader for your favourite newsfeed.

  • Completing the missing parts of this homepage like the pictures section.

  • Finishing a couple of pong matches, i've left open.


If you are asking if this site is coded in webstandards, i can tell you, it nearly is XHTML 1.0 valid. But there are some glitches with the Flash tags (object/embed). I know there are things to make the object-tag cross browser compatible by completely losing the embed-tag like the Flash Satay, but i don't think this is worth the effort. What do you get out of webstandards anyways? Your page doesn't load faster or look better if it's valid html. I say it's better to fix your page for every browser than to rely on webstandards! If you are not with me, feel free to comment on this!

Awesome! Beautiful design and an excellent execution of flash =) Btw, I am looking forward seeing the results of the 3rd point you mentioned above.
