Things I'm working on ATM
I am finishing off an essay on "Arian Christianity (the Father is Greater than the Son)". Arian Christianity was purer and less tainted with paganism that its successor (and made more sense!). But alas, although it was a close call, it was not the Christianity that the Roman Empire was to give the world! My page laments its demise under the ruthless hammer of Nicene/Cappadocian Christianity.

  • Everyday Thinking Errors, about how our cognitive functions mistakenly create patterns from ambiguous data, and about social psychology results in inaccurate beliefs about patterns in the world.

  • Gnosticism - a page on ancient gnosticism religion... probably not for this year though.

  • International Citizens?? Something to do with globalisation, global citizens' pressure groups, the internet, potential world government, anti-nationalism, and stuff.

  • Zombies: Necromancy; a page about the necromancers found in zombie films. Need time to re-watch some films.

  • World Government (nearly finished).

  • Obesity - on permanent hold ATM. About the medical and personal costs of obesity and its prevalence. Have lost sight of why I was doing this page.

  • Seculariation Rates (religion). A collection of stats examining the progress of secularisation in the West, and its challenges and reverses.

  • Neophobia - the fear of the new!

Updates...
Rather than spam my own journal, I will post updates to my religion pages on vexen-crabtree.greatestjournal.com. For example, I have just posted there that I've updated my page on St. Anselm's and Descartes' Ontological arguments for the existence of God with some neat humour from Dawkins.

My new web domain is a collection of pages and texts on society, sociology, subculture, human sexuality, epistemology (how do we know what's true?) and a little philosophy.

It replaces two previous subdomains.

Here are some *new* locations for two popular pages:

Easyspace
Easyspace servers across both my domains are removing IMG tags; from banners that link to other sites and internal sites, to little graphics used for navigation... they're being replaced with spaces in the HTML, and I can't log in to their helpdesk or find any email address.

Anyone shed any light on this? It's odd, and I think it's only really started happening recently (within weeks).

I've been "ok" with easyspace since 1998.

I AM AWAY AND OFFLINE
This is a post-dated entry that should appear as the first entry when my journal is viewed.

I am offline for three months from late November, 2003. I will not be able to respond to LJ comments, emails, etc.

Vexen = moody

I want to find some epic HTML task to engage in... but what? I know... I'll remove all the redundant KEYWORD meta tags from all my sites! Then do a few items from my webpages_todo.txt file...

Number 1: Add lots of links to content-pages from photo-pages.

And add some formatted context quotes to pages, the same as what BBC News does[1].

Redo my http://www.vexen.co.uk/books/ directory! That's what I need to do!

[1] For amusement value I phrased that sentance like a stupid person. Innit.

Site stats
I'm working through my log files from 2003 July.

Since then I have amazingly got over 100,000 page hits per month across both my domains. That's over 3500 page hits per day! I am well impressed!

More details, and a fancy chart with lines and things, will follow today or tomorrow!

My Bane Of Monotheism has been given a bit of a makeover, and I've been rewriting a few of the more embarrasingly amateur stuff from it's inception in 1998/1999.

Photos of Orinoco

Photos of Orinoco on Vexen's photosite



Because I have used heavy DHTML, most people on my photosite don't have an actual URL to link to. But, I am very slowly getting round to reducing the amount of DHTML. This improves my Stats counter for the site, and also allows linking and doesn't break the browser BACK button so often.

So randomly today I done a page for Orinoco, because he has quite a lot of photos.

I give up, I can't sleep...

When I generated new web site statistics a few days ago, I also produced log files of all the 404 errors, so tonight I'm going to start the process of looking where each 404 error came from and seeing if I can do anything about it. http://www.dpjs.co.uk has 116 such lines to look at, but http://www.vexen.co.uk has 725. I know most of them wont be internal, but it interesting to see which domains and pages I've been linked from.
