This past weekend I completed changes I have been making for over a month to this site. The first changes were all behind the scenes database re-designs - enabling me to add new features to the site (like "subscribing" to an entry - automatically being e-mailed when a new comment is posted in a thread you have commented in).

Then I added some new features, like being able to browse and search the Notable URLs Archive; search my Blog Archive; add comments on Notable URLs; and subscribe to comments.

Then came the cosmetic changes. Some font changes on the headings, added dividers seperating blog entries and comments. I completely redesigned the left sidebar for the Notable URLs - showing the descriptions and spacing them out. Added search boxs on the left. I am really happy with the "Browse the Archive" box on the Blog/Notable URL archives. And while most of my text linked were "styled" to match my site, some were not styled and had the browser default underline and Blue/Purple color scheme - I have also cleaned up these loose ends and have a more uniformed site.

XHTML 1.0 Strict valid. I wasn't validating as valid XHTML before - now my layout is 100% valid. I still need to browse through my archives and clean up old post that may contain invalid mark-up they may cause some pages to not validate - I will work on this.
