There’s been a few changes to the HFH website. Here’s a brief list of them:
1) A little purple man should appear in your internet browser’s address bar opposite the HFH web address. It’s called a favicon, if you really want to know.
2) The website had been ‘broken’ in the Firefox internet browser ie. pictures and text on some pages were all over the place. This has now been fixed. There are still problems if the site is viewed in Opera.
3) By popular request a newsletter is now being offered on a monthly-ish basis. Please click here for more details.
4) The whole purpose of the website is to encourage people to volunteer their time from the comfort of their own home. This means that people are performing these actions in isolation from everybody else. To overcome this, an action tracker has been added to the website to enable people to see what actions are being performed by others, in the hope that it will provide a sense of community amongst fellow volunteers. Click on the following link to see the Action Tracker in action. BTW, the Action Tracker was very kindly created by Mark Sinkinson who is a freelance web designer. If you need any website design just contact him here, he’s very good and very capable.
5) The 'Forum' and 'Submit a Site' web pages have been substituted by a ‘Soapbox’ page. Same format as the previous 'Submit a Site' page, but this time a different emphasis has been placed on the theme of what can be contributed. Check out the following link to the Soapbox page.
Well that’s enough changes for one month. Till next time.
