I highlight Uncyclopedia, a satirical wiki that is surprisingly harder to maintain than Wikipedia. The real challenge is internal consistency—making sure all the jokes and fabricated facts align perfectly with every other lie on the site.
I added a search box to the top of my blog that allows users to search through posts using regular expressions. The feature is implemented entirely with JavaScript, providing a fast and simple filtering method.
I re-enabled comments on my blog after a temporary hiatus. I spent time troubleshooting initial bugs regarding frame issues and session persistence, eventually confirming that user names are saved via cookies rather than IP addresses.
I found that adding a daily-changing date parameter to my Geocities site URL hides the Yahoo! ad sidebar. This trick likely interacts with Firefox ad blockers to bypass intrusive advertising on the free hosting platform.
I explore the Long Tail of information sharing, noting that a tiny fraction of users drive most Wikipedia content. I originally doubted organizational wikis could reach critical mass, but later found examples where scale made them work.
I built an interactive quiz featuring 30 classic 1980s Tamil songs by Ilayaraja. Challenge yourself to guess the movie titles from audio clips. I wrote a custom mapTamil function and used SHA1 hashing to secure the answers.

Yeah. The lies have to be consistent with all previous lies.
