New Features on RPD

by Alexa on October 25, 2008 · 7 comments

I’ve decided to add a few little options to the RPD site.

The first thing you’ll notice is likely the poll on the post pages.  I’ll be posting occasional articles that include a poll in them, but you’ll also see the occasional, random poll on the right-hand side of the pages as well.  Feel free to vote in those you find of interest.

I’ve also added the ability to e-mail or print each article as well.  You’ll notice links for these at the bottom of each article.

Right below that, you’ll see the option to rate each post.  This will give me some idea of how well each of the posts I put up goes over with the readers.

If you guys have any ideas for things you’d like to see added to the blog, let me know, either through a comment or via an e-mail.

EDIT:  I’ve also added the ability to post the stories to your favorite socializing web sites like Digg, Technorati, Stumble Upon, Facebook, and Twitter.  There’s a bunch more available, so if there’s a site you use that I don’t have links for, let me know and I’ll add it in if I can.

And, finally, as Shannon alluded to in the first comment below, I’ve changed the graphics on the main page, along with the new logo header at the top of all of the pages.

Very nice.
I noticed you changed the pictures on the home page as well. I like.
Looking good so far though. :)

I didn’t think anything was wrong with the old version of your site but am impressed with the improvements.

I just wish I could subscribe in Google Reader (because I’m feeling lazy).

Not sure if I’ll use the option to post stories to my facebook or other, as I like to keep my real life separate from my “private” life.

Ron,

I didn’t think anything was wrong with the old version of your site…

It’s not that I thought anything was “wrong” with it. I just got in the mood to change some things and did it. I don’t want things to stagnate. ;-)
