Site design

Over the past few months we've started covering other games on guide sites much like this one. From the beginning though, we felt that these sites had one big shortcoming.

If a Borderlands Guide reader wanted to comment on them, he or she would have to re-register. After spending all weekend getting my hands dirty with PHP and SQL and other short words lacking vowels, we have a solution.

Like a penguin learning to use weapons, Borderlands Guide is increasing its arsenal of features. Two new ones today.

1. This site has grown quite a bit over the past month. A big source of this has been people passing along our stuff. Thanks everybody.

To facilitate that process, there is now a button at the bottom of all forum topics that lets you distribute the content to sites like Digg, Mixx, or Facebook; e-mail it to a friend; or subscribe to the site using a feed reader.

Rome wasn’t built in a day. If I remember correctly from my history class, it took a couple weeks. And even then, some of the bathrooms in the Coliseum weren’t completed until the next month.

Borderlands Guide is a work in progress as well. Since there’s isn’t much news on Borderlands right now, I’m trying to improve the the site. This week, I’m working on the design.
