Semantic HTML & Responsive Layouts

Posted on 27 Aug '24 filed under Miscellaneous

These past few weeks, I frequently delve into tutorials, mainly studying HTML 5 and learning about Semantic HTML which have been around for quite sometime, but simply ignored it because we refused to change our old habits of coding back then. Currently, I'm testing around how responsive layouts work (along with me viewing other's source codes to study how they work) which in the future is intend to be implemented for mobile and tablet devices.

We're well-aware almost 90% of our designs are static (meaning the content and design cannot be adjusted for any devices) and will need lots of time to convert to this idea fully, granted that there are also projects that requires more focus. Regrettably, there are way too many fanlistings to convert at this point, as well as our other network sites—we should've started on fixing our old ways of coding long time ago. Therefore, our top priority for now is to implement semantic HTML on newer sites that are already coded in DIV (table-less) as they are simple to convert.


Gmail (G Suite Legacy)

Posted on 24 Jun '24 filed under Miscellaneous

For those who were lucky enough to have this feature MANY years back as a domain owner, Google used to provide free Google Apps service called G Suite. What I love about this gem is that there's Gmail integrated, and I prefer their email interface over my host which Cerine and I still use to this day.

Back then, many domain owners offered free Gmail accounts to anyone interested (regardless whether they're hosted under them or not). So rather than using "user@GMAIL.COM", it will be "user@DOMAIN.COM" and still able to access into Google apps this way. Any users under me are given access to free Google apps (such as Docs, Sheets, Slides, etc) aside from Gmail. In addition, owning Gmail accounts are great because many sites today offer users register or login using their Gmail accounts. Fortunately, I still hold the Legacy G Suite Free Edition which gives me the ability to create unlimited domain-name Gmail accounts without getting charged by Google for monthly subscriptions, and will remain free forever as long as there are active users.

Unfortunately, Google has discontinued their free legacy edition on June 27, 2022 and will force new users to use Google Workspace which is a paid service. That said, I'm not entirely sure why I haven't thought of this in years, but I figured out how to add in our secondary domains to G Suite. Eventually, Cerine will transition to her own domain email and will no longer be using my domain extension. We will also have another email for Enamour to access our fanlisting endeavors.

Possible Future Updates
We MAY consider offering free Gmail accounts using any of our domains of your choice. Or we MAY offer current domain owners to own Gmail using their domain extension.
