Site Timeline

Well, this page will tell you all about the thing that happened to this site, written pretty much as it happened, with a few odd entries for colour and usefulness, concerning 2005. So that you don't get bombarded by lots of random entries, it's broken down by month. I hope this helps.

In fact, this page specifically deals with September 2005, so let's see what there is...

We found 14 random happenings for your reading leisure.

Date	Notes
30 Sep 2005	Finished HTML parsing system to a standard that could almost be passable, quality-wise. Work now turns to finishing the current list of translators, ready for a 1.0 launch... date to be confirmed but hopefully "soon."
26 Sep 2005	Implemented L33T-Speak full translator.
22 Sep 2005	Implemented Binary and Morse Code translators. Also wrote drafts of the "How It Works" pages.
21 Sep 2005	Finally, the URL parsing system (major part of the HTML parsing system) is reliable at tag attribute handling. There are still a few things I want to straighten out first before moving forward, mainly to do with a few major tags (like handling comments, or JavaScript fragments) before I can even consider a launch of any kind. Also implemented the robots.txt analysis routine.
20 Sep 2005	Implemented system for determining whether voices were available for text-only, webpage-only, or full translation service. This will speed up adding new voices into the system, and also appears to be marginally faster than the old implementation.
18 Sep 2005	Timeline and links pages added.
17 Sep 2005	Work on the HTML parsing system proceeds - slowly.
16 Sep 2005	Work begins on the Pig Latin and Scramblation (later titled Scrambler) translators.
13 Sep 2005	Work begins on the new Elmer Fudd code.
11 Sep 2005	Script to handle text in a text box to be altered is complete.
10 Sep 2005	Documents created for copyright, ethics, disclaimer etc.
5 Sep 2005	Domain name 'thevoicesofmany.com' registered. Also began to create the first layout code, based on previous work (the original myperch.org code)
4 Sep 2005	The site gets the name of 'The Voices of Many'. Amongst other names considered: "The Fuddenator" (after the Elmer Fudd voice proposal), "The Text Masher", "The Wordenator" and a few others so bad I've forgotten them.2
2 Sep 2005	Building on from my first test code, I started to build an Elmer Fudd translator, "to see if I could do it." Today I started to build a test implementation of it, the code for which would be completely scrapped as unwieldy and highly inefficient.
