during Laconia Bike Week 2007 to my Nomad page.
|
|
05-04-2008
|
A little more tweaking to my RSS
feed. Now using RSS 2.0 and including publish dates. This eliminates the
need for the date in the feed content entirely (assuming you are using
a feed reader). I also added a link for my blog feed as well.
In other news I stumbled across a minor style issue that was
showing up in Internet Explorer and managed to get this resolved
so things should be consistent again.
|
|
05-03-2008
|
I've continued work on the RSS
feed to improve upon it some. The date is now in the description
rather than the title and I've ensured it's validity using the
W3C Feed Validator. I
also added a great pic to the Humor
section.
|
|
04-28-2008
|
Official release of my RSS
feed for the 'What's New' section.

|
|
04-04-2008
|
Added a new dessert to my 'Recipes'
section.
|
|
03-31-2008
|
I made some improvements to the styling of the pop-up messages
(ie the pop-ups used above when hovering over a specific year).
|
|
03-24-2008
|
I made some very minor adjustments to the site overall. If I did
everything correctly nobody will notice since they were mostly
cleaning up the code.
|
|
|
|
10-20-2007
|
I have made some adjustments so that printing the recipes will be
more "printer-friendly" saving you some ink and making
them easier to read
|
|
09-03-2007
|
The contact page has been updated (finally, I know!)
|

09-01-2007
|

|
I updated my Nomad page in the 'My Bike'
section to show the accessories I've installed.

motorcycle.
|
|
04-10-2007

To Ride collection in my gallery to showcase my newest
additions. I also added a couple shots of my new bike in the

finally home.
|
|
04-01-2007
|
I added some more images in the humor
section.
|
|
03-24-2007
|
Due to some malformed document type declarations many of my
pages were not properly validating uses the W3C link in the
navigation panel. This has been corrected.
|
|
03-18-2007
|
Today I did some minor updating on the main page for the
discussion forum I host on Delphi Forums. I corrected some
issues with the layout and also added some formatting changes
to integrate better with the rest of the site.
|
|
03-17-2007
|
Implemented a new script to handle any 'tooltips' which enables
these to now work in Firefox and Internet Explorer. To see an
example of these simply hover over the years at the top of this
page. I'm now using overLIB
by Erik Bosrup.
|

|

in March. I also updated the page for my 1500 Classic to
indicate her passing.

A long time coming but my Saddlesore

|
05-02-2005
|
Added a couple jokes to the Humor section.
|
|
04-30-2005
|
The site now has an icon which can be seen in the address bar
of your browser. This also shows up in the tab for those
using tabbed browsing in Firefox.
|
|
02-16-2005
|
I got a great joke in the mail today about Haiku error messages
from a friend. I thought it was hilarious and just had to post
it ASAP. LOL!
|
|
01-17-2005
|
Today I added a great cheesecake recipe!
|
|
01-09-2005
|
And so it begins...The first update of the new year is quite
minor and likely won't even be noticed. I fixed a problem with
the Links page which caused it to look pretty crappy in
Firefox.
|
|
|
|
10-12-2004
|
I updated all pages to include the
URI of
the DTD.
Now all the pages have a complete DOCTYPE. I guess I'm
a slow learner, this should have been included from the
beginning.
|
|
08-23-2004
|
I added a great 'toon to the "My Bike" page.
|
|
08-17-2004
|
Since I having been taking the time to validate all my pages
I went through and added the Valid HTML logo to all pages
which passed the validation check.
|
|
06-22-2004
|
I made a minor update to my Vulcan 1500 page to reflect the new
shiny bits I bought while up in New Hampshire for Bike Week.
|
|
03-05-2004
|
I added a poem written by my niece on the "My
Bike" page.
|
|
02-28-2004
|
I added a page for my Oldsmobile & my Pontiac
6000. These can be accessed from the "My
Car" section under Past Cars.
|
|
02-23-2004
|
By request I added one of my favorite quick meals
to the recipes section.
|
|
02-15-2004
|
I added a page for my Pontiac Firebird & my
Grand Marquis. These can be accessed from the
"My Car" section under Past Cars.
|
|
02-14-2004
|
I added a guestbook and updated all pages to include
a link to it in the navigation panel.
|
|
|
|
11-21-2003
|
I started getting the car pages together. The first
is for my new Altima!
|
|
11-11-2003
|
Today I took the time to validate every page using
the W3C®
HTML Validation Service and corrected any errors
found.
|
|
11-07-2003
|
The new design made it online today (as scheduled
this time!). Unfortunately I didn't get the ride
reports completed yet. Those will be back soon.
|
|
11-04-2003
|
The page for my current bike is complete along with
the pictures and accessories close-ups. Next on the
list is to port over the ride reports.
|
|
10-30-2003
|
The pages for my first bike have been completed and
work now shifts to creating the pages for my current
bike. I also had to correct a very minor inconsistency
among the pages. My goal was to have the new site
"online" on November 1st. Well,
that's sure not going to happen. I am going to push
back the date a tad. I need to get a little something
together for my current bike (even if it's not
complete) and then I will post the new site. My new
goal is by November 7th.
|
|
10-27-2003
|
Jumping around just a little bit, I added a section
for my favorite recipes. Work continues on the
bike pages.
|
|
10-19-2003
|
With the humor section basically completed I have
started work on the bike pages. First on the list
is to redo the page for my first bike.
|
|
10-13-2003
|
I began getting the humor section put together in
the new design. I also plan to include some new
stuff once I have finished porting the existing
content in.
I also added a link to my DVD collection to the
About Brettman section on the home page.
|
|
10-10-2003
|
The basic outline of all the section pages have been
created. This will give me the opportunity to post
the new site as soon as I get a little more of the
main content finished.
|
|
10-06-2003
|
The old Fun Links page has now been combined
with the Motorcycle and Car links as a separate
section called Miscellaneous.
Further work has been done to move to the use
of style sheets as well as a couple minor design
changes to the site as a whole.
|
|
09-14-2003
|
The old Motorcycle Links page and Car Links page
have been combined into a single page and
organized into separate sections.
|
|
09-13-2003
|
I have made a number of tweaks to the basic design
and think I finally have the design of the site
nailed down. Work is beginning on the rebuilding
the existing content to fit the new design.
|
|
09-01-2003
|
Work has begun on a complete re-design of the site.
My plans are to eliminate the use of frames and
simplify the look to be a little easier on the eyes
while still having effective navigation.
|
|
08-28-2003
|
Having recently joined the Massachusetts
Motorcycle Association I have added their
logo and link to My Ride page.
|
|
08-17-2003
|
I registered the domain name brettman.com today!
Currently it re-directs to the "true"
location of my site but perhaps in the future I
will spring for a hosting account.
|
|
05-01-2003
|
Added another picture to My Ride page.
|
|
04-16-2003
|
A minor update to My Ride page.
|
|
03-16-2003
|
I updated my motorcycle accessories page to
include some more closeup photos of the
recent additions.
|
|
|
|
07-31-2002
|
I Updated My Ride page with my SaddleSore 1000
Ride Report and added a link to the Iron Butt
Association.
I also added a link to Taglines Galore in
the Fun Links section.
|
|
07-20-2002
|
My Firebird page has been updated with
information regarding the recent
"cosmetic surgery".
|
|
05-26-2002
|
I updated my accessories page for my bike to
include the latest additions. I hope to have
close up pictures for them soon.
|
|
03-05-2002
|
Well, most people won't even notice but I
changed the navigation bar a little. I moved
a links around and adjusted the colored bullet
to be aligned better with each link.
|
|
02-26-2002
|
I updated the existing link on the Corvette page
as some of them were no longer working.
|
|
02-23-2002
|
Added a couple links to the Web Resources
section for site which I have been using
recently and found helpful.
I also added
a page for various types of feedback. Now
you can send me your comments about the site,
ask that a link be added and even tell me
when you found a link that no longer works.
Last but not least, I added a few new
pages in the humor section.
|
|
02-21-2002
|
Minor update to incorporate further use of
style sheet.
|
|
02-20-2002
|
Just a few minor tweaks tonight to make the
"Recent Discussions" for the Delphi
Forum work again. I also added a link to my
friend Susan's page.
|
|
|
|
09-08-2001
|
At long last! The latest version of
my accessories page for my bike is now on-line.
I think the new version works quite well.
It includes close-up pictures of many of
the accessories which will open in a
small pop-up window. Have no fear! You
will not be inundated with little windows.
The window can be left open (or closed)
and when you click to see the picture for
a different accessory it will reuse the
existing window (or re-open it if it was
closed) and also bring the window back to
the front so it isn't hidden behind any
browser windows. I hope you find the
functioning to be simple and clean.
|
|
07-27-2001
|
It's been a while but I have recently
switched ISP's so along with moving the
site I changed the background and have
updated the links in my Web Resources
section. I no longer have access to CGI
scripting so the forms no longer work (the
guestbook still functions). Hopefully I
will work around this as well.
|
|
03-19-2001
|
I now have a more permanent web
address! You can simply point your
browser to http://www.bigfoot.com/~brett.stpierre
and you will automatically be forwarded
to wherever my site resides. Just in case
I ever move you will always be able to
find me
.
Update your bookmark today!
|
|
03-07-2001
|
Minor changes to my Vulcan ("My
Ride") page. I added a graphic of
the Vulcan tank badge which I found and
modified. I also added a link to ABATE of
Massachusetts (Association of Bikers
Aimed Towards Equity). There were also
some minor cosmetic changes.
|
|
03-01-2001
|
More manufacturers added to the Car
Links section!!
|
|
01-28-2001
|
I updated the accessory page for my
scoot. I listed a few more accessories I
purchased which unfortunately will have
to wait until spring to install. In the
spring I also have plans to provide close-up
photos of the accessories installed.
|
|
|
|
10-16-2000
|
More changes! I made some minor
changes to "My Ride". The most
noticeable of which would be the
accessory table which now resides on it's
own page.
|
|
10-14-2000
|
Did a little "playing around"
today and made some changes to the
navigation menu. You'll notice that now
it uses the same font as the rest of the
pages and the "sections" no
longer have the underline for the
hyperlink.
|
|
09-30-2000
|
Updates to "My Ride" and
"Motorcycle Links".
|
|
07-27-2000
|
More pictures added to the photos
area of "My Ride".
|
|
07-24-2000
|
Updates to "My Ride"
including a photos section for my bike as
well as a section I will use to post
photos from the various rides I have been
on.
|
|
07-05-2000
|
Created a new page to showcase my new
motorcycle. You can get to it the same as
before, by clicking on "My Ride"
in the navigation bar. The page for my
Vulcan 750 is also still available as a
link off of the new bike's page.
|
|
06-10-2000
|
Fun Links page updated.
|
|
06-05-2000
|
Car Links and Motorcycle Links updated.
|
|
05-21-2000
|
Finished adding consistency changes
to my Vulcan page as noted in 4/29 entry.
I also added a new page of Motorcycle
Links, check it out in the navigation
bar.
|
|
04-29-2000
|
Updated the About Me page to include
a few more pics. Not new pics mind you,
these were taken in 1998.
Also made some more "consistency"
changes such that when you click to see
a picture of my Firebird (for example)
it will have the same backgound as the
rest of the pages rather than just showing
on a white background.
|
|
04-17-2000
|
Thanks to the wonderful support at
Prime Connections (my service provider)
the "Add Link" form has been
fixed and is functioning normally again!
|
|
04-08-2000
|
I moved the visitor counter off of
the "main" page so visitors
wouldn't be counted twice if they went
back to that page. The counter now
resides to the right of the led sign at
the top. For space reasons I also removed
the text "Visitors since...".
|
|
04-02-2000
|
Minor "bug" fixes. I found
a couple images that weren't showing up
and also the backgound for my Firebird
page was incorrectly showing as white. I
believe I caught everything and for the
most part must say that the revision went
smoothly considering I changed so many
"little" things. In addition to
minor bug fixes I added a graphical link
on the About Me page to CAUCE (Coalition
Against Unsolicited Commercial Email) and
a graphical link to my employer
(MEDITECH).
|
|
04-01-2000
|
The revised version made it on-line
today! Everything should be working okay
but if you should experience a problem
drop me a quick note. I updated a number
of the pages fixing broken links and such
and also added a page for my Firebird.
|
|
03-25-2000
|
I have begun working on
a complete update of the site. The
overall design will not change but I plan
to make a more consistent look to the
site as well update/add some links. It
will probably take a bit of time before I
post the new site since I want to
complete the entire site instead of
posting each page as it is updated.
|
|
01-15-2000
|
I made some minor changes to the about me
page and added a link to my motorcycle
page.
|
|
|
|
11-22-1998
|
Well, it's been a long
time since I made any updates but I
finally got off my duff and did something.
The first order of business was to update
my resume. Minor updates to the About Me
page. I also need to update all the links
on my site as I'm sure there are dead
ones. Fear not, I will get to this soon.
I made the frame at the top of the page (the
one with the sign in it) resizable to
aide viewing in different resolutions.
Last but not least I added a form for
requesting site additions.
|
|
06-24-1998
|
I made another attempt
at making my midi work better in both
MSIE and Netscape. I have now made the
midi come up in a separate window so
visitors can easily shut it off. It still
isn't working perfectly in Netscape but I
am a step closer and feel that soon I
will have it working. I also took out the
midi on the About Me page.
|
|
|
|
11-14-1997
|
Lots of changes today! I
added a page of classic car photos I've
taken and scanned myself. This page will
grow in the future when time allows. I
also added another page to my Humor
section entitled 'Addicted To The Web'. I
organized the files a bit by moving them
into directories and also changed some
file names so that all my pages would
have .html as an extension. A more subtle
change (even subtleties are noteworthy)
was that I added a newsflash message to
the led sign to alert visitors to the new
car photos page. Please let me know if
any of the graphics won't load or if
there are any pages that can't be found.
|
|
11-12-1997
|
I found a led sign Java
applet and put it in it's own frame at
the top of the site. This proved to have
some great possibilities. I am able to
use several different effects as well as
colors and timing control. You can find
all the necessary components for the sign
as well as some help for using it at
Greg's
Little Shindig.
