Domain Names

Wow. The Territory is such an amazing book. I definitely recommend it. Back on topic: recently I've acquired some domain names - for free! I've been using Freenom to get free .tk, .ml , .ga, .gq and .cf domain names; I think this service is great, as you have full access to the DNS (unlike with FreeDNS ). Thus, I am now hosting my blog at blog.matthew-grove.ml (the website you're most probably on now); I plan to get custom email addresses, through  Zoho Mail . I have found Zoho Mail  to be the only free email hosting service I could find that supports custom domains. However, I have run into a rather sizeable problem. They block .gq domains. This means that the domain name I was going to use is now redundant. Yay. I am yet to find an alternative, as it seems all of the free domain names are blocked on Zoho (although they still haven't confirmed this) - so any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Please leave them here . Also this week, I have been ex...

Custom Email Addresses, SSL Certificates & Custom Bitlinks

I have given up on using Zoho Mail for custom email addresses, but have just discovered a different service: Yandex.Connect. This provides what is seemingly the same service as Zoho Mail, except it allows .tk , .ml , .ga , .gq and .cf  domains (notice that these are all of the free ones from Freenom) - although when you sign up, make sure you do it through connect.yandex.com , as opposed to domain.yandex.com , which is an older service (they are migrating to Yandex.Connect) that doesn't allow all of the free domains. Yandex.Connect is a free service, with unlimited mailboxes of an unlimited size (as far as I know); I have now got a customised personal email address (matthew@grove.gq), along with ones for www.aquapi.ml and www.blackthunder.ga (a water-saving project and Reading School's Robotics Club, respectively). You may have noticed that I'm rather keen on finding money-saving (i.e. free) ways of doing normally costly things. So far, I have 8 domains, three of which...

CSS/JS Animations - Black Thunder FLL Website

I haven't posted for a few days, and in that time I have begun reading 'The Territory' , by Sarah Govett, and finished Black Thunder FLL's website! I have greatly increased the efficiency of the JS; have been working mainly on this file  (see the file history by clicking the History  button, or going here ). Firstly, from what I have read, 'The Territory' is a very good book: I love fantasy. Secondly, I have made Black Thunder FLL's home page a lot  more efficient (and hopefully bug-free). I used to use setTimeout() statements to remove the underscore from the end of the title and main text. This was very inefficient, for multiple reasons: Sometimes the typewriting code was delayed, so the underscore was never removed; CPU usage was slightly higher, as the computer was running a timer; Instead of utilising the already running function, I ran another; The value of the final text was hard-coded, so there were two variables with the same contents...
