Quick Update

September 26, 2007 · Leave a Comment

Discovered that background images don’t show up properly in most major webmail clients; also most of them don’t like positioning. Surprisingly, AOL reads both of them correctly, but since none of the others do (hotmail, gmail, yahoo), the nifty little quote graphics Michael (new intern) made will only be used on the website for the moment. You’ll see them show up next week.

Website: You can now join our email list directly from the site, on any page, in the upper right corner. I’ve also reworked the videos, so there are 3 in the sidebar now (youtube’s interface used to not resize very well to the size we needed, but they fixed it recently), and you can see all of them on our video page. It’s just a custom player/playlist from youtube – if you want to make your own, it’s point and click, you just need a youtube account with some videos uploaded.

Last week was very busy – I was here late a couple nights getting all the materials ready for CTV’s trip to Mackinac for the Republican Leadership Conference.

James did an interview with someone for Michael Jefferies’ position last week also, so hopefully we’ll get someone in here soon.

Phillip Boggs, for those of you who know him, is coming back to the states briefly next month I believe, then planning on going back to Peru for two more years of medical work.

Outside SSI/CTV: I’ve got another website that I’ll hopefully start working on next week – I’ll give some details once I have some details. The most recent one I did was www.mickimagee.com.

I’m still trying to sell my house – if anyone knows anyone interested in purchasing a home in Lansing – 4 bedrooms, 1800+ square feet, hardwood floors, fireplace, 2 living rooms, full-size basement and attic, nice neighborhood – please have them get in touch with me. It’s been vacant for nearly a year now and I’m willing to work with people on price, financing, etc.

This blog will be a log of what I do all day at work, to help better understand over time how my time is spent at work. Also, I will try to explain things about SSI and CTV that you might not know. If you’re not interested in or a supporter of either company, then perhaps you’ll simply find the workings of a non-profit organization something you’d like to read about, or offer opinions about, or even help with if you have advice.
