Obviously I have upgraded the website to include the new look and a number of new features. If you are interested, the new features this page now has are as follows:
- Lifestream – This follows my various social websites such as twitter and updates them. The page does take a minute or two to load, so be patient.
- About – Finally added an about page for myself.
- Ads – Yes overall there are many more ads because I’m trying to support myself better. On the front page there are now 3 adsense ads ( asmall one on the side, a large square in the middle, and a line on the bottom). Other pages will have 1 or 2 ads on each for the most part. I also have included an IE only ad to get Firefox on some pages. And I also hopefully added in text ads from Amazon.
- Featured Post – The featured post idea was one to revisit previous posts that I have made. What I will do here is feature a few posts from the same month of previous years. This will also allow me an ability to revisit previous posts… adding tags, categories, changing titles, and even editing them to correct mistakes. Hopefully this helps new users discover old content.
- Simple interface – The new interface is intended to lower the amount of clutter on any individual page which I felt was starting to increase. In particular on the front page which lowered the number of posts from 10 to 3, got rid of much of the stuff that didn’t belong on various pages, etc. However, I did decide that it was time to flash the page up abit too with an image header.
I may be having some more features added to the site in the future. A couple I have wrinkles to iron out still, but for the most part this is my new site. I hope others enjoy it as much as I do.
