Right now What's New is very new. I've added this link to help regular visitors have some Idea of what's been done lately on my home page.
Two of the things I've done in the past is add to Java Scripts. One displays at the Bottom of the page showing when the page was last updated based on the HTML files date info. The other is on my link pages. The new symbol is displayed for only 30 days after I add a new link.
Lately I have been taking one link page at a time and checking and updating the links manually. In the process I usually try and add a few new links if I find any that seem worth while.
