When I was a kid, science wasn’t really a part of my life. My friends and I didn’t walk around investigating things according to any system. There was no method to our madness.

We didn’t really learn that much about science, either. Sure, we had natural sciences in school, but it was mostly rote learning. We looked at various kinds of...

Developing websites is fun, but being a hardcore hand coder means I don't use tools which fix the code for me.

Developing on my Mac also means I know fairly well how things look in Safari, Opera and Firefox. But Internet Explorer is a problem. I have to either boot my Mac into Boot Camp (so that I boot into Windows), or I have to run Windows in...

Hypography just got kicked out of Google Adsense - probably the most famous web advertisement program in the world right now.

We've been in it since the early days, and it has helped me finance the running of Hypography since it has covered the costs for our server, software licenses etc.

Adsense ads has some cool properties: They are easy...

I am thinking about how to improve Hypography's design.

Certainly there must be ways to improve it?

vBulletin has a major...

Maintaining Hypography

16 September 2008
Posted by Tormod  
Keeping Hypography running is a mastodontic job. I have long since lost track of how many hours I have spent installing things, upgrading, fixing things which are broken by upgrades, finding hacks, helping people and so on.

It takes a lot of time.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

When we launched in May 2000, we wanted to create a site to share science-related content of all kinds on the web. As time passed, our site turned into a pure science forum with lots of cool people.

So we kept the name Hypography and the cool science forum community - and aim to be a friendly place for discussion of science topics of all kinds.
