Changes and Experiments

I’ve been doing a little changing and experimenting with this site, recently, though probably not a lot is readily apparent. For one, if you like quotations, specifically the ones that randomly appear below the header, there’s now a link in the main navigation bar to all of those.

Also, I’m going to experiment with moving the Google Ads to a different spot. I still want them to be unobstrusive, but if you’re like me, you probably read right past them unless there is something that specifically catches your eye, so I think they will remain so. I’m going to try putting them in the posts and articles, off to one side so the text flows around them. The motivation for this is not solely avarice, but also curiousity. Does the placement of an ad make a difference? Thinking about presenation concepts would lead us to think that it does.

Besides, I think by this time most people who find Google Ads obnoxious have downloaded Firefox and downloaded the Adblock extension.
