Okay, so the search function
isn't implemented, or is broken entirely I decided
to sigh up for Google's free search
engine. Spring
signed up for the service and I decided to
give it a try.
The hard part was integrating the search field over to the left into the
site. Google requires the use of their logo, which I have nothing against
but the only background colors they provide are white, grey and black and
not the shade of blue I use. Another irksome quirk: while you can brand
the output Google expects you to have a banner image to use. I don't. I
wish they had the option to specify a text based banner but hey, it's a free
service; I shouldn't complain all that much.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
symbol, design element, et cetera mentioned in these pages is a
protected and/or trademarked entity, the sole property of its
owner(s), and acknowledgement of this status is implied.
