Since I posted the Barack Obama newspaper front-page collage last week, my blog/site has received record traffic.  Also, some comments from readers.

Ben Woods, from www.benwoods.com, posted his own collage at http://benwoods.com/assets/images/obama_wallpaper.png.  On my blog he says that his is a “real collage.”  Come on Ben!  Yours is great but nowhere near as impressive as “Geoff’s,” whoever he/she may be.  Your collage contains what, about 200 images? Geoff’s has about 700 images.

Isabel Cortes asks if there’s a way to get an electronic image version of the collage.  Isabel, I actually made a few unsuccessful attempts at making a jpeg, tiff, etc., version.  Unfortunately, I’m not that adept at some of this web publishing and image stuff.  Sorry.  If you hear of anyone else making a different version of the collage, please let me know.

Thanks Ben and Isabel for your comments.  Chuck

I apologize to anyone who tried to access my website on Saturday and Sunday and found nothing.  The technology gods took the weekend off, and the tech gremlins tookover (I.e., my hosting company’s server went down for about 24 hours).  It’s very frustrating.  Obviously, everything is back up now.  Sorry about any inconvenience.  Chuck

In my continuing effort to increase my site’s usefulness as a resource and research tool, I just added the Sphere plugin. The Sphere icon is at the bottom of each post. This is allows readers to click on the link at the end of all posts to see related content from other websites. This is similar to the Snapshot widget but seems less obtrusive. Feel free to let me know your thoughts about this. Thanks, Chuck.
