The starting place for this page was the game, Lights Out, which was also the basis for my Amiga game FlipGrid. It was an experiment to see how small I could get a web page. The final version was 1.2K.

During development, I read about the Sylloge competition to design a site in 5K. I expanded the entry to feature other mathematical puzzles and curiosities. Each was presented in its' own frame, divided according to the golden ratio, appropriately enough.

• Used single letter filenames for each frame
• Built the game from Javascript - literally. I wrote JS which created the game Javascript directly into the web page. This resulted in a much large page in memory but since the issue was disk space I was fully justified in doing so.
• Single letter variable and function names, not using quotes around attributes, removing whitespace, etc. The sort of thing the IOCCC have been 'encouraging' for years :) This did result in some very long lines (f.htm is one line, 469 characters long!).
• Sidestepped the W3C guidelines and 'forgot' to include any tag I didn't really need. The page does break the strict and transitional spec in places, but works on the current set of browsers, making it a valid entry.
• Writing the code a couple of times, using different algorithms, and picking the one that would compress better, even if it resulted in a less than optimal piece of code.

I have a number of ideas for small sites, but none of them have yet been started.

I missed the Sylloge competition this year, but plan to be back next year with avengence
