I’ve added some more links to the right side of the blog.

Two blog searches are now available, by topic. One for Feedster and the other for BlogDigger

Also, just about all the links from my media page have now been added to the blog. Links to media opinion, Chicago, suburban and downstate newspapers and TV stations have all been brought over to the blog.

I’m looking for a better pull-down menu. What I’d like to do is have the page you select pop up, rather than take you away from the blog. Any suggestions out there?

I also added a link to the Daily Herald’s political writer Eric Krol who does an analysis piece every Friday.

Mr Miller, one can set it so that the pages open in a different window. Also, one can have scripts for floating menus.

I know one can do it. I’m wondering how one does it.

Try changing the references in the javascript from “_self” to “_blank”. This should force a new browser window to open.

Meanwhile, as you continue to seek treatment for this new blog addiction, please leave the link to your old media page in place. The drop downs are slower or don’t connect. I know that if I really cared I could buy the F%$#*@ing papers, but give us a break.

The media links were taken directly from the media page. If some of them don’t work, please email me or post here.
