Hi there, gang. Just thought I would drop everyone a quick note to let you know of a new service I've been working on. Details at: http://www.degreetracker.com/ This all sort of evolved out of the custom spreadsheet that I made to track my degree progress at TESC (which I've mentioned before in my Unixman's Clep Oddysey thread). The web version is much more informative, and a lot more intuitive than the spreadsheet. At any rate, stay tuned. Enjoy the sneak peek Cheers.
You did a great job on the formatting. The version you designed is easy to follow and allows for student updates. Keep up the good work!
Wow! Looks very elaborate! I am assuming you'll be using some sort of database (mysql?) as the back-end but what are you intending as your scripting engine? PHP? Having a Java applet may be good as well but might not work on some systems... especially if it's Windows Java. Judging from your handle though, I'm sure it will be something I can run on my Fedora distro All the best with your endeavor! Mahmood
Unixman: Very impressive. Unless I was seeing things the other day, did your degree graph show 90%? Like I said, I have been doing a lot of homework lately, my eyes may have been playing tricks on me. Either way, just wondering. Once again, very impressive! Have a great weekend! Abner
Re: Re: Coming soon, degreetracker.com I was probably playing around with it (testing). The current meter should be accurate ... (unfortunately!) ... Cheers.
As an update, I've put up some temporary forums there, to provide a place for ideas/suggestions - I don't want to abuse the bandwidth here at degreeinfo.com, so if you want to help participate in the development, feel free to hop on over there and create a forums account. I've also put up an updated screenshot as well ... http://www.degreetracker.com Cheers.
