The Road to Reconstruction – Day 27

I was rather overoptimistic, thinking I might have a shot at finishing the shorts section all in one day. In my defense, I was doing a lot of work on the back end, things like the spellcheck sweep and making the naming convention more consistent throughout (as the shorts section was particularly bad about inconsistent file naming). Of course, all this work you can’t see will ultimately speed up the work that you can, so that’s something, I guess. I managed to get 60 reviews knocked out, so that’s nearly half. Not too shabby.

One minor thing worth noting is that I reclassified the miniseries Childhood’s End to the shorts section because, well, miniseries get covered there and it never should’ve been filed in the TV section. It always stuck in my head, but I could never commit to changing it until now.

Tempting as it is to just go ahead and finish the shorts section, I think I’ll cycle back around to the movies and continue with the iterative model of reconstructing the remaining four sections of reviews one chunk at a time. I’m definitely not going to meet my previously stated goal of having the site fully restored by Easter, but as long as I’m still moving forward, that has to count for something. We’ll see what the new day brings. Stay tuned.
