In 2000, with some extra time on my hands, I began exploring some internet online games sites like pogo.com and prizegames.com. Soon, I had realized the need for a set of informational pages about the sites giving tips and other information related to some of the games. These sites have continued to be popular. Many years later, my pogo pages are the most popular area on plainsboro.com.

I had gone to great lengths to ensure the success of these pages, to make the information useful, and even creating detailed cgi scripts that players could use to keep track of statistics for some of the games they were playing.  I had originally written these scripts in unix csh, using the uncgi plugin on my server to support csh programming (which wasn't supported by cgi-bin scripts at the time). In 2004 when I moved my web server from a Sun computer in my house onto an external hosting web site, this functionality disappeared.

This was a major redesign.  Since these pages are still today the most popular pages on plainsboro.com, I wanted to make them attractive and easy to navigate.  I approximated some of the colors actually used on pogo.com: greens, yellows, oranges.  For navigation, I made use of DreamWeaver's Spry Menu Bar widget to incorporate drop-down/pop-up menus.

Much of the information had since gone out-of-date, so a large part of the re-design was to update old and no-longer-useful information.

I later changed this site to be template-based, making future updates, additions and deletions easier.
