Another new portfolio entry

Gee, I must be on a roll or something. I just uploaded another entry for the ol’ portfolio.

This one’s a work piece - more specifically, it’s an intranet site for a working group that my boss and some co-workers run. It’s got two main features: a blog-like interface for announcements and a document repository. Admins can go in and modify everything on the fly, yadda yadda… It’s a neat little system.

What I’m most excited about, however, is the chance to finally implement something I’ve been hearing about for ages - eliminating confirmations for delete actions. I was able to do away with ‘em by making all such actions reversible (within an adjustable timeframe - currently two weeks). I’m really looking forward to hearing the feedback from users to see if the knowledge that they can’t permanently screw things up by exploring and playing around makes the system easier to learn and use.
