JaysonKnight.com Upgraded To Community Server 2007

JaysonKnight.com has been upgraded to Community Server 2007...if you're used to seeing this content in an aggregator, have a look around the new site. I still have a few kinks to iron out, but overall I'm very happy with the new themes included in CS. Is is the usual for me, I'll be going with stock CS themes that will evolve over time as I get around to making customizations.

New to V 4.0 of JK.com:

  • Clean clean clean. Did I mention it's much cleaner? Simplicity is elegance, so that's the name of the (new) game.
  • Anonymous email subscriptions. There's an email box in my my subscriptions sidebar block...plug in your email address to receive notifications when new content is posted to this blog (great for folks who might not want to mess around with an RSS aggregator).
  • Comments RSS. Subscribe to just the comments of this blog. I don't really get a lot of comments so it won't do much good.
  • A ton of stuff behind the scenes to make this site easier to use, faster, etc.

This upgrade was by far the easiest yet...total time spent cleaning stuff up was around 2 hours or so. The new theming engine in CS2007 makes changing UI related widgets drop dead simple, and I can't wait to dig into it more in depth.

Sidenote: Microsoft news coming soon!

Neat :-)

Very simple and beautiful.  I think this is one of the best themes that I've seen on your site over the past two years.

Jason, looks great. I'm digging the default theme, too. I might just use it for a while as well.

Thanks guys...throw your hats off to Telligent for the nice theme. Tim, it's Community Server 2007 which RTW'd a couple of days ago. Get it while it's hot!

About Jayson Knight

Jayson Knight was clueless to the computer programming world until he took a C++ class in college. The rest is proverbial history. He has been building applications targeting the .Net framework for 7 years, focusing mainly on internet technologies and database driven web application development.

Most recently he left the world of Corporate IT to finish up his degree in Chemistry, with an eye on Medical School and an Anesthesiology residency program. Read this post for more information.

He is also a Community Server MVP: Community Server is the software that runs this site, plus many others on the web. For more information, check out http://csmvps.com.

When he finds time to pry himself away from his computer and university studies, he can be found on the mountain bike trails when it's warm, and on the ski slopes when it's cold.
