LLBB basically is the current name of my website (livibetter.com) and my blog (livibetter.com/blog/) as well. It was born in 2005-11-18 with me in sadness. Currently, it has two major section: Blog and forgetIT. “Blog” is my personal blog. I write many things down using it. forgetIT is a forum for IT Crowd.

There were three or four different sections in livibetter.com: Living Better GALLERY, WIKI (born at 2006-03-06 10:01) and MoinWiki (born at 2007-04-08 18:16:08). GALLERY didn’t survive very long time, because of my use of PBase and Flickr. As of 2007-08-18, I removed WIKI, MoinWiki and some files, because I can’t use and maintain them well.

Besides these two major sections, there also are few projects (/p/) and pages (/page/).

This blog came with livibetter.com. I am not sure that I had home index page prior to 0.1 and I don’t remember what’s the blog theme at that time. It could be the Classic theme from WordPress. I do remember one thing, it had flexible width of page, but I don’t like it. That could be a reason why I tried to make my own theme.

I tried to design (?) my own theme. I used Classic to begin. I put a cat on a brick wall to the sidebar. I was aware that everything is terrible.

I think the header image is ok, but below it… OMG! Later, I drew few icons for sidebar, and I still use them. In 0.2, I started to make site-wide theme, make header and footer all the same in livibetter.com.

Within this version, I wrote few JavaScript codes to make sidebar items collapsible, but it didn’t last too long (only few months) before I removed them.

Living Better (2007-0?-??~2007-10-16)

Someday in August or September 2007, I felt “Living Better BLOG” is too long, so I changed it to “Living Better”. I also removed the images in header, then I tried to use images as less as I can. On 2007-07-22, I removed the home index page, and redirect visitors to blog.

Prior to Style 0.3, I kept adding and removing many same things again and again. Meanwhile, I started to write my own contact form and page template program. This /contact.py is still a baby, but it is working. The page template program, /page/, is good for me, it can merge almost any HTML files into my site-wide theme.

As of 2007-10-16, I changed “Living Better” to LLBB and I was working on a new forum. Two days later (2007-10-18), forgetIT was ready and I put the home index page back with new design.

As of 2007-12-17, I removed few things at header, only left title, search box and ads. And the height of header is down to 65 pixels.
