Have you ever just wanted to scream out loud because things were not going your way? I sometimes feel that way with NeedInstructions.com. Many of you keep asking me when the site will be up and running? However, due to my arrogance in trying to keep the site perfect, it is delaying the move to the production site. Webster defines perfection as, “the quality or state of being perfect: freedom from fault or defect.” Now if you’re a web developer or developer in general you know nothing can be perfect no matter how much you try. You can test and debug for years and years and no matter what an issue will arise. I probably should just go with the flow and get the site out and running, but I still want to give it some time. I want to try to keep the site error free so the users won’t dislike the site when the first see it. I think that’s not too much to ask. Who likes a site with bugs? I certainly don’t!
I recently just submitted the last change request to the developers. I am adding functionality that will allow users to communicate to each other. The site will also allow users to send friend requests. Once these CR’s have been implemented, I will do one last round of testing and push the site to production. I know I said it before but please keep your fingers crossed in hopes to get the site up and running before Aug 17, 2008. Since that is the day I will be getting married, it would just be another great present I would be receiving on that day.
