The VacationValet Channel

  So I updated the Tv2C~Social blogging engine when I re-loaded the site recently.  This was the last distro that was published to github back in 2018.  Previously, I was running something that was several versions older and spanning a coupla years.  However,  working on the front end of the application never afforded me the time or luxury of sitting down and doing a proper update.  Needless to say, not much has changed.  I'm wokrs on 2 websites as of now and working nights to get the bills paid.  The update to Tv2C~Social has been painfully slow, but I'm not worried about it,,,  not even a little bit.
  Tv2C was originally a project I conceived to help me learn web based programming.  I had decided that a web app, for a business idea I had, would be fundamental in its success.  The problem with that was thus, I didn't have the funds or resources to hire a team of IT engineers to build what I had in mind.  Soooo,,,  I took to the task of learning it for my self.
  Along the way I learned allot about the internet, the tech industry and various web based scripting languages.  The original idea was for a web based, vacation centric, web app with video being its primary focus.  This of course was just as Google purchased YouTube.  The original VacationValet Channel was on YouTube back when you could select what page template you wanted.  Additionally, you could work with the CSS to customize fonts and styles as desired.  YouTube channels were much different then than what's available there now;  Eventually and currently, only YouTube "Partners" are allowed limited admin privileges to customize their respective channels.  Subsequently, when that first happened is when I went all in on learning how to code and build my own web app.   And this is where it's at now.
  The first version of Tv2C only had the front end video interface.  Tv2C~Social came along when I first moved the web site.  As my understanding of hosting platforms grew, I found more competitive pricing and improved hosting services.  Inevitably, this was the catalyst for that move.  For perspective;  I paid then, in 2 months, what it cost me now to host all of my sites for 1yr.  That's a big cost savings,,,  and being that neither site has ever generated any revenue, it was an easy decision.  It proved also to be a solid move.
