Features On My Site (Web Dev's, Please Take a Look)

Submitted by Patrick Patience on September 3, 2007 - 9:06pm

Ok, so I have a site, and I am going to get new hosting quite soon, so I'm finally working on putting the site together. The site is http://www.nascent-project.org. I'm planning on making it a heavily community contributed site. So far, I have the following features in mind.

  • Wiki (I'm thinking MediaWiki)
    • List of Open Source Software (LOSS)
    • Oh! So that's how you say it... (Proper pronunciations for words learned on the computer)

Okay, I think it's time for another off-topic post. What's everyone's favorite gaming system or games? Doesn't have to be of this generation (for instance, NES would be fine).

Mine:
Nintendo all the way, so it'll have to be the Wii.
I like the Metroid Prime games, so Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. I also like the NBA Live series. And, I'm partial to WWII games, so Blazing Angels for Wii will be on my list.
