Most of the code on Linkped is pretty much in a prototype state.  Many of the tables are fairly unoptimized and are hard to work with right now.

So, I started a complete rewrite a last week.  However, a few days into the project I realized I am trying to do way too much at once.  The code requires a major overhaul and with my very busy schedule it could take a few months to get it to a respectable level.  I have now taken a step back and archived my work to start over in smaller chunks.  Although I “lost” a good week of coding, the code will be usable when I reach those areas.

I should start pushing some updates to the site in the next week or so, no new features will be introduced though.  Much of the work will be backend, but will fix a few quirks on the site.  For example, the buddy list system is slightly clunky.  Sometimes it doesn’t display the proper labels for users and defaults to their email address.  Its a rather annoying inconsistency.  This is going to be the first thing I tackle followed by user account system.

After I finish a few minor changes to Jokeped (Mostly SEO shit), I am going into a full development cycle on Linkped.  I totally rewrote Jokeped reducing the code base a ton and really optimizing the crap out of it.  It now has ultra high use of memcache to the point it can run without a database being present.  Keep in mind, it normally does have a database driving it.  The only time the database won’t be present is if the site was getting slammed or the server was having trouble.
