( 2.9 / 689 )Here's the news: 1) One more day! 2) New features! 3) I'd have to install Apache too for a MediaWiki wiki
Okay, first things first: I'm going to America tomorrow! Can you believe I forgot until now?! We're going to be picked up to go to the airport at 7:30 pm, and I'm bringing the laptop with me. Maybe there will be Internet at the airport!News number two: I've added a wiki and forums to my website! However, they are only for my friends. No offense to the person who happens to stumble across my website, but my parents feel much safer when I only allow people I already know to contact me through the Internet.
News number three: I'd also have to install an Apache web server to be able to set up a Wikipedia-style wiki. If I'm going to be doing all that anyway, why not turn my laptop into a web server? I don't know...I might be acting a little too ambitious. Comments, PLEASE! If you are looking at my blog, I would ABSOLUTELY AND COMPLETELY THANK YOU for leaving a nice comment!
The related link is MediaWiki.org, where you can download the wiki engine that was used for Wikipedia. It is absolutely free for people who are blessed with a database-and-PHP-equipped server.

( 3 / 656 )I have MySQL installed!
I could install PHP!
I don't care if I can't make an official website, you know, something like alison.com or anything like that!
Could I install MediaWiki and have my own Wikipedia-style wiki? Now that would be absolutely and completely cool!!! Personally, I would rather switch to a different server than make my own mini-server, but I take what works!
Or do I?
Comments, please!! If it won't work tell me!

( 3 / 713 )The bads:
--Doesn't support PHP 5 or later
--Doesn't support any kind of databases
--Doesn't support Java servlets
The goods:
--Free because I'm just a sub directory of my dad's website
--Supports Perl and older versions of PHP
--Is not a Unix web server, therefore I usually don't need to do any chmod'ing.
The most annoying of the bads is no databases. Everything cool nowadays uses databases (well, maybe not everything, but all the wikis and forums and guestbooks that are easy to get use them!). I can manage to find stuff that uses flat files, but it takes a lot more time. The greatest of the goods is the fact that my website is completely free. I hate stuff where you have to pay for it month by month, because it's always hanging over you.
So, any comments? Should I switch? Please please please, leave me a comment if you look at my blog!! The Contact Me link sends an email to my dad's email address. I would appreciate a great deal more if you left a comment here!
