Good News! I’m Not Blind!
Neither are you.
I thought it was just me. The nanofont that I was using was originally created by the guy would wrote the Lord’s Prayer on the head of a pin.
Probably swell for 16 year olds. Not so visible for me.
I’m using headers (yes, the font used for sub-headlines) as regular text. Actually, the size is still a little small. The fact that it also is bold finally gets us to moderately OK.
Haven’t figured yet how to get my links in that size. For now, I’m separating them out and keeping them on their own line in a smaller font that allows their color to show.
Step at a time, I keep saying. Step at a time.

Blog “Menu” Presentation Improved
Initial trials indicated people needed a cleaner look after they clicked on my “Menu” option. Something simple and obvious.
I recognized that I had to turn off the comments. Got that done.
I punched up the font size.
And I included both the Home Page and the Extended Menu as choices.
We’ll subject humans to this version and see how it plays.

Menu Link on Blog Sites
You can now navigate from my blog sites back to the main website.
Yippee.
We’ll skip over how weird it was to have half a dozen orphans stranded out in cyberspace. Continued…

Extended Menu
It’s a little cheesy, but there’s now a menu button called “Extended Menu.” It’s on the menu in the main website and links out to a page called… you guessed it: “Extended Menu.”
Basically, the Extended Menu is a text page of links going out to all the blog sites. Strangely, it also has the menu buttons for the core website on the same page.
I’m overlooking graphics issues tonight and settling for a navigation system that should work for most non-psychic mortals.
This basic little trick will hopefully make all the web pages and blog sites play together nicely.
Fingers crossed.

Employers Intelligence Has Content
…was started with a simple link to an old report about Business Development.
I now have current content.
That’s another one up and running.

Shows Blog Gets First Entry
I inaugurated my Shows and Trips blog with an edgy review of ISA’s Automation Week.
My big snit: Here we are coming out of a recession, and they solve weak attendance figures by raising prices and limiting access.
Guess I don’t have to worry about booking that trip.

Shows Schedule Gets Tube and Pipe Entries
I’m deep into campaigning a candidate to the steel tube and pipe industry, so there’s no saving me now. I found two industry shows dead on for this sector. Both are loaded and linked in.

New Stuff
We’re going to lighten the load on reader’s of my Famous Green Update Letter and my editorial blog Recruiter’s View.
Both of those literary masterpieces have a tendency to get longer than a Russian May Day speech.
I come by it honestly. Continued…

Alternate Menu
Here’s an Alternate Menu I’m using, at least temporarily.
As I keep crashing forward, it offers two solutions at once:
-
My simple, simple menu on the web page can only link to pages on the immediate site. (In my blogging frenzy, I’m adding more and more manual links.) A menu on a text page solves that in one quick shot.
-
I’m now adding even more blog pages. Fantastic for firing off all kinds of updates. Confusing for me, and tough on the creaky menu system. A text page of menu links solves that one, too. Continued…
