Results of Main Page Tweaks

I updated the little "drew hevle" box in the right hand upper corner of the main page to be a server-side include, so the picture, caption, and thought (I'm calling it the "Thought of the Day") is now a separate blog. This has a lot of potential for easily making changes to the main page without having to rewrite the page from scratch.

Main page tweaks

I added some small things yesterday, under Feeds I added a link with a text description to Bloglines, in addition to the little ribbon image link. And I saw this real funny idea, I can't exactly remember where, I think it was here, where a blogger put sarcastic little asides in the titles of the links (hold your mouse over the link and wait a second or two to see them in this post). And then I added my "turn-ons" and "turn-offs". I may turn these into little blogs, like What I'm Reading and What I'm Reading (for Book Club), so that I can update them more often.

More minor tweaks

I do this kind of thing all the time, but never bothered to document it, but now that this section is set up as a blog, it's much easier to update. I just started fiddling with the format of the site, and ended up making a couple of changes:

1) The Books section now automatically numbers the last 20 books I've read.
2) I added a link to the picture of myself on the home page, now it jumps to the Drew page.
3) I switched the format on the post date (BlogDateHeader) and the post title (BlogItemTitle).

Old and busted format:

Minor Tweaking

New hotness format:

February 2, 2006
Minor Tweaking


Very minor change, but I felt like the date was overshadowing the post title. When I first designed the format, I thought that the date would be the most important thing abot each post, like a diary, but the titles are really more pertinent I considered eliminating the date header altogether, and putting it down at the bottom of each post. I still may do that, but I think that this change makes it look better and easier to read.
