hut in the web

While witway has been online for more than a month now, there were only 12 registered users up to date. Well, actually there were 20 in the database but the remaining 8 didn't confirm their email yet to progress with the rest of the registration process. I checked the traffic and there were many hits coming from the asmsi site. Meaning, asmsis were visiting the site, they just don't want to become a member. Maybe because witway didn't capture their interest. They find the site boring. For me, as a developer, I don't go for the design. I want an application that runs. Sure enough witway has no good web design to offer but the basic functionality to search for batchmate, whereabouts and branch is there. Zooming in and out of the map alone gives idea who-is-where-thing. Which is actually far more better than the asmsi search feature. Once they found who they are looking for they can even dig deeper to view their complete profile which contains other information.

Well, I am not expecting anything anyways. I just want to create website to learn new technology.

For the development side I am planning to port the site to Silverlight application. SL is cool. I would also used WCF and the .NET 3.5 framework.

So much to learn.
