School is over for the year and I have had a very successful semseter. A's and B's (mostly A's) all around. Now it's summer and I'm in Alabama once again. I'm back to where all this fun began. You remember the check adventure, right? Hopefully, this year will not require a trilogy. I'm praying that everything will go smoothly. There is a set scheduele; let's stick to it!
Anyway, I'm interning again and I'm working on another website. This one is in dire need of my help. Fortunately for you readers, this is a public website and anyone is free to view it. At the time of this writing, I have not worked on it yet as I am still in the brianstorming phase. I think that most of the site is salvageable. You'll see changes in the layout and organization, plus some other extras.
This website is approaching it's first birthday (June 18th). It isn't really a big day. It just means the site is seasoned and experienced now. I'm not sure exactly what that means for a website. However, I do want to take this opportunity to apologize for not updating this site as often as I should. I planned to update it every week, and I kept it up for a while. Then I trickled down to once or twice a month. I'm sorry, and I will do better. I'm thinking of adding news headlines to the main page to give you guys a reason to visit everyday. That will be something!
I'm also adding a clock to the front page. Now most sites have the date on their website and that's fine. It's also very easy. Some sites have the time, but it's only the time when the page loaded. I will have the current time (that is for the eastern time zone). By the time you read this, it will already be there and you would have already seen it. Impressive, isn't it? I do have to admit that I did not write the code that keeps the time current. A very talented Javascript writer came up with that. All I had to do was modify it's appearance so it would match my website. It's a nice touch to go with the dynamic greeting.
Finally, I'm making one other big change to this website. You may not even notice it, but it's there. Trust me on this one. Maybe you will figure it out. I'll give you readers a hint: it's not visual. It's based on your clicking actions. I have a feeling that I'll still have to just tell what it is. I'll save that for next time. Anyway, that's it for the changes for now. Stay tuned and stay safe!
