Now your talking about a social network. Is SHACS still alive? The
website looks like it hasn't been touched in a while.

I graduated in 2004 from the CS department. Worked for SHSU as a
graduate student programmer for a few months and got a job in Austin
for Corrections Software as a PHP Programmer/Analyst. Now I'm a
Systems Administrator for Small World Labs and still live in Austin.
We provide social networking software built on the LAMP architecture.
