[Project-under development] Team-Meet, PHP website system

[Macbeth]

Hello there.

We have started a project that will help co-workers and/or team mates share updates, create projects and communicate with eatchother a lot easier within a shared enviorment. The whole project is written in PHP and by that it is web-based.

We've got the whole core done already and most of the coding is done. I will give out some invites for people if they would like to try it out.

Live Demo:
Team Meet - Where Co-workers unite

I've uploaded 5 screenshots, you can have a look at them in the "Attatchments" in this post.

Any feedback is good feedback, so please tell me what you think.
Regards, Dan

It looks good, a nice, clean and simple design with what looks like good coding behind it. Nice work and good luck with the rest.

[Macbeth]

Thank you m0nsta! Anything negative you can come up with that I can correct?

[Markshall]

Not at the moment, it all looks decent.

A couple things I just wanna well, make sure u know lol:

1. Make sure it's very secure if people are going to upload their sources etc. You don't want people to be able to download other's sources and whatnot(A tip for this would be zipping files with password upon download/upload, the password being a team password or login password).
2. Make sure upload speed is fast, also that you have a LOT of storage space.

In any case, i don't really see what the purpose of this would be seeing u can just set up a SVN server ^^. But then again not every1 knows how to do that and for smaller projects this might be good.

Are you using any framework?

[Macbeth]

1. Well, it won't be holding source-code, unless the users chooses to post a status update with their source-code, and if that is the case, yeah it's secured.

2. Unlimited storage space. I am realizing that this thing will use A LOT of it. I am thinking of coding a php script that just deletes all for example posts made that are older than 2 years or so and then having it run with cURL every day or so lol.

This won't be like a SVN tool or something like that. This is not for source code. It is just for the people in the team to communicate, deliver new progress updates on any projects and such between eachother. But who knows, we might just add a way to insert source coude and such too inside every project the team creates.

When it comes to frameworks no, everything is self-coded from the very beginning.

Would you be interesed in trying it out when I post the demo?

I have one question:

How are you going about doing the friend request/adding?

[Macbeth]

@chrisdothtml

You mean with requests from members to join other peoples teams? If so, it's kinda easy - you just create the needed mysql tables for the the team members and assign it with ID's really. And code the scripts so it looks for that unique ID. The same thing would do the trick if you ment like friends with other members of the site wise.

And it's already done so I know it works to do it that way.

Oh okay, well then this would only be good for bigger teams since progress in itself is better done over MSN, Phone, or just online to-do lists. At least if u ask me. Logging onto an extra site just to post updates on what u do instead of just using a to-do list or MSN seems pointless to me ^^. But some people will find it useful I'm sure :) + it's a fun project so why not.

You should be using a framework though for security and speed. And if you don't have file-uploading then don't worry about disk space cus a MySQL database doesn't take up much, a 50gb hdd should be enough for quite a while.

[Macbeth]

Yeah we'll see who finds it useful :)I don't think I'm gonna use a framework, the site is running very fast really and the security is good.

Actually, it will be a little bit of both. We will start on the project side today for the teams so we might just include source code inserting.

[Detox]

Is this development still going, or is the project dead?

If its still going, good luck! I'm looking forward to see the results.

[Macbeth]

Well we are adding a few extra things to it but it's finished yeah

[viroware]

Nice, i would like to see the site up and running :) Also is this a project available for people to download or an site? You should add some more information as there is not much to read. Apart from that everything looks good (y) good luck keep up with the project !

[Superfun]

Looking nice, would love to see it in action.

This sort of looks like the way twitter works but I mean so far I'm liking the way its looking so hope you guys fininsh.
