Tech stuff

The LaughLab project involved two primary tasks, and several secondary administrative jobs. All of these were controlled from three Apple OS X Servers and a number of remote client machines. Due to the nature of the tasks they became known collectively as the Mirth Inspector.

The two primary tasks were:
Tennessee Titans jerseys
Tennessee Titans apparel
Tennessee Titans shirts
Collecting jokes
Jokes were entered via the web and saved into an OpenBase database via WebObjects, and were then ready to be included in the main survey. Each submitted joke was only included into the main survey database after being vetted and deemed suitable for submission. This process allows us to remove all incomplete submissions and bogus entries. Suitable joke submissions were moved to a separate web enabled database which contained the jokes and formed the basis for the LaughLab review web pages.
