KingClancy

www.kingclancy.caThe 2006 version of KingClancy.ca is just about wrapped up. I am doing this for the band in exchange for some recording gear and free studio time. Doing web work— or any work for that matter— in a barter exchange is an interesting approach. It can be hard to quantitatively measure things like studio time, custom programming, etc.

LagerLad

www.lagerlad.comAll this time in bed I’ve been trying to keep up with the web sites I’ve been asked to design lately. Today I was able to almost wrap up LagerLad.com, and it has been quite fun.

LagerLad is based on the idea at www.milliondollarhomepage.com, where visitors can come to the site, select an area where they want an ad to appear, pay for the spot, and upload their ad.

The program infrastructure I wrote, which runs this new site, is for sale and will be available for download shortly at Intelliscript.net. If you’re interested, be sure to check it out.

Thanks!
~Jason

Intelliscript Downloads No Longer Free

For the last number of years I have made my Perl scripts absolutely free to download, and have depended on the honour system to encourage people to pay for the scripts if they use them. I sold a few scripts—maybe once a week or a couple a month. I wasn’t keeping track of how many scripts were being downloaded each day, which I should have been— just lazy to add that feature.

But a week ago I decided to stop allowing free downloads and ever since doing so have started getting a lot more purchases. So sorry to those of you who are inconvenienced, but I had to start paying for that web site if I was going to keep it going.

It’s a lesson to me: people won’t pay for something unless they have to. I guess I’m the same way, so I shouldn’t be suprised. happy
