PRESENTATIONDJBEAT.NET

Nathan Perkins

Project Description Social Network that showcases original

multimedia such as digital music, videos and graphics.

Similar structure to FaceBook or MySpace, but for Music Producers and Disk Jockeys.

Outcomes Created DjBeat.net (registered

domain) Originally created with free,

open source Social Network PHP script, called Dolphin

Scripting is intensive and difficult for inexperienced PHP programmers

Outcomes (continued) Problems with nameserver allowing

domain to show up in browser Proxy had to be used to view the site Webhost had low bandwidth and made

site slow if several users were logged in simultaneously

Outcomes (continued) I plan on fixing nameserver issues and

upgrading hosting plan I created my own liquid layout that would

be used for DJBeat.net I used original graphics, music, video

and layout:

Lessons Learned I need to learn more PHP and possibly

create an original social network backbone

Original layouts are better to work with and come from the <3

I need to pick a better webhost if I want to fully launch DJBeat.net
