Site Evolution
Added a bit of automated interactivity to the site.
First off, I have grabbed a rotating quote from Brian's web, and added it to the creative mine.
I've been following the hunter-mott newsgroup for a couple of years, and recently one of the threads was around getting people to try to guess which song had which specific lyric. While it seemed to take on the flavor of one of those long "games to play in the car on a long trip" sort of flavor, I put 2 and 2 together and decided to add a new feature to the threefour page. Anyone can upload their favorite Ian Hunter or Mott the Hoople lyric to a fan lyric list. Each time the threefour page reloads, another one of the lyrics is displayed at the top of the page. Result: It appears that there is always something changing on the page - without me having to do a lot of webabysitting. Lets see how fast the list grows. [I may post a link to it in the newsgroup to get some attention.]
Lastly, on July 4, Earthlink decided to play web-police, and forced me to rearrange a few components of my web design. Had nothing to do with content - only how much of it I had, and in which folders it was stored. After a few hours of migration, I think I fixed most of the links. But I would appreciate if you would send me a note if you spot any broken links!
Thanks.
