Another web page creation recollection

Eventually, I got better at this web page stuff; and the ability to upload and download larger photos gave me greater freedom to be expressive. By the time of my 2003 travels in Europe I was posting larger scale photos. I expect though that in a few years these photos will seem as quaint as the photos that I have scanned in from my family's photo albums. Some of my ancient web pages -- such as the ones for www.NotSorry.com/BC.asp and www.NotSorry.com/Vancouver.asp -- are in dire need of an upgrade. I apologize. 

So what is good at NotSorry.com? Well, after I took some Internet Programming courses in 2003 I became pretty good at Active Server Page programming. That is the technology which I use to enforce standards and allow feedback. I use this on pages such as www.NotSorry.com/Nola.asp and www.NotSorry.com/Family.asp to allow the popup photo viewing. Cool is it not?

There is a big downside though -- isn't there a downside to everything? Google has a huge problem cataloging the content of these ASP pages. In 2005 I was in the top 1 million web pages -- yes not much to brag about -- but now I am barely in the top 3 million. Ouch. So it is a constant battle between the ability to be ugly and slow and searchable or the ability to be fast and good-looking but hard to search. My most recent web pages are those for New York 2006 and the Fraser / Thompson areas of BC. Both pages have nice pictures but need some more words...
