Due to finals and Drexel move-out, I’ll be too busy to blog for the next two weeks. Picture Posts will continue, but nothing written. See you September 8th from back in New Jersey.

This has been long overdue, but it’s finally here. The site design has been pretty much the same for the last two years and back in 2011, it was one that worked. In 2011, my intentions for this site were quite a bit different. Originally, I meant for this site […]
For those of you who are returning readers, you may have noticed some changes. If you’re new here, welcome. It’s good to have you. That said, this post is more for returning readers (but you’re awesome too new readers!) So, let’s get right to it. shall we? First off, yes, […]
At ai, we believe in being open and honest when it comes to your privacy. That’s why effective immediately, we are rolling out a completely rewritten privacy policy. Our new policy outlines specifically what information we collect, what third-parties we use and partner with, and what, if any, information they report back […]
For over a year now, there have been three words that you’ve likely seen on the site a lot: dreams can happen. Those three words are words we live by. However, they were never actually intended to be the slogan for The France Hopper Network. Dreams can happen is actually the slogan […]
Recently, the sidebar was given and overhaul and as a part of that overhaul, I’ve added two new banner images that do indeed link to other sites. So what’s up with those? First of all, like the rest of the sidebar, they only appear on the home page. They were also […]
It looks like Instagrate went a little post crazy recenly. I’ve turned it off for the time being to troubleshoot it. I’m considering upgrading to the Pro edition anyway which has quite a bit more settings.
Two small updates were pushed out to the site this week: Updated banner – after leaving the old one up for a month, we figured it was time for a change. UNICLOCK removed from sidebar – We decided to remove the clock widget that used to live in the sidebar. […]
If this were a movie rather than a blog, this is where one of those fancy transitions would go. But it’s not. Nonetheless, it has indeed been a month since I’ve last posted. Given that the second to last post made on here was the one celebrating our first birthday, yeah, that […]
I can still hardly believe it as I write this, but as of today, both The France Hopper Network and ai|inc are now a year old. Last year, at 10:18pm edt, I quietly flipped the switch on what was started as a project to try to centralize everything I did on the […]
Two small site updates today: The header and background were changed to complete the transition to the new theme. The new design focuses on a simple, modern feel. Hopper Books and Media was updated with new recommendations for the week. And one larger update: The A Week in Philly series has officially returned. This […]
Edit: As you may have likely guessed by now, this post was the April Fools Day joke for this year. We are not changing our name and the site has now been restored to normal. We will be continuing to update the site theme in phases that should be complete by the […]
In keeping up with the site updates, some very small ones were rolled out today: Sidebar: Removed “The Latest 5” box. Since the sidebar only appears on the home page, it was unnecessary to show the latest five posts again. The box still exists in the footer, which is shown […]
Today I’d like to unveil an entirely re-written photo gallery. Well, almost entirely. While the core system behind it is still same, it has been completely reorganized, has larger thumbnails, and now also features four new galleries, including the largest one to date. I’ve also added a link to see […]
OK, technically one isn’t entirely new. It’s been coming soonish. Well, now it’s here along with one new project that I am today rolling out of closed beta. The first project, the one that has been coming soonish, is a DIY room entry detection system. It is a system I […]
After many months of neglect, the Connect page has received a major overhaul. How major? Well, here is before: …and here is the brand-new after: Each site in the list now includes a description of what the site is, what I do on it, and for most of them, how I […]
Next Wednesday, Jan. 18th, The France Hopper Network will shut down for the full day in protest of SOPA. We firmly believe that if SOPA is passed, it will destroy the Internet as it exists today. We believe that SOPA is nothing more than an excuse to gain unrestricted control […]
Got an iOS or Android device? Got Google Currents on it? Good news! The France Hopper Network is now available for mobile digestion on Google Currents. To add it, simply search for “The France Hopper Network” (although as you can see, just “The France Hopper” is enough). Eventually, it will also appear […]
A new photo gallery has just been added and is now live: New York Comic Con and Anime Festival 2011. I hope to have a post about the convention up soon as well. Until then, enjoy the gallery.
Don’t see the blue gradient at the top any more? Time to empty your cache. The base theme that FHNWRK uses was recently updated and included a couple new “features”. However, those “features” ended up breaking more things than adding functionality for. All of them have now been stripped out and […]
