I know most of you probably didn't notice, but CrazedSanity had some issues for a while: a few of the pages ("Links" and "Contact Us") displayed the wrong content for a while.  Instead of showing their unique content, they display the main page info (news feeds & such).  Well, that's fixed!  I know, you're so excited you almost jumped out of your britches right?

Anyway, despite these changes, there have also been some major updates to the backend systems that I thought I'd let ya know about... you might want to sit down for this one.

First, authentication is checked dynamically.  Yeah.  I'm talkin' AJAX, yo!  Signing in and stuff are (mostly) done through AJAX, so there's no need to reload the page.  I KNOW!  It's AWESOME!

Did you notice the little weather image stays pretty up-to-date?  It actually reloads (through some spiffy AJAX-ish Javascriptiness) every 20 minutes, which is about how long it takes between changes on Weather Underground.  So if you opened the website at 8:22 AM and look at it later, you should notice that the time on the image is within 20 minutes of being current!  Yeah, I know... be careful not to spill your coffee.

Yes, I'm still working on registration.  It sort of works... kinda.  You can register an account, and it'll send you an email, but activation isn't working yet (at the time of this writing anyway).  Its a rather small thing to get working, and it will work someday... but not just yet.

With these backend updates, I will soon be able to do some cool things with blogs.  Yeah.  I know there a buttload of ya that blog... There's like FOUR... okay, there's only two if I count actual people instead of blogs... Anyway, when you're in the middle of a blog, I'll be able to do cool things like background draft saves.  Yeah.  So if you accidentally hit that stupid extra button on your mouse that you didn't even know existed and it sends you back a page, you won't lose what you have.
