I have just removed the access to the Partnership Desk from the logo near the top of the page, and substituted Google advertising.  It remains available from the Menu System under Games.  I have also added a wide section for Google advertising just above the articles.

In the first case, hardly anyone had used it, and even fewer have had success.  Instead, we rely on Annabelle's e-mails, so there is no great loss from it's removal.  In the second case, the amount of space reserved is small, so the loss is small.

I have attempted to block all advertising that might be objectionable, but if you see any that are offensive or otherwise objectionable, let me know.  Two of the areas blocked are Get Rich Quick schemes and Sexual ads of all sorts. Political ads are allowed.  :)  The only ads I have seen so far seem to relate pretty well to Bridge and other games, but they are under the control of Google from analysis of our content.

As with Amazon, The Daily Recap receives revenue from your responses. 

The Server agreement for The Daily Recap was renewed today for another year.  We are approaching the 2-year anniversary of it's deployment, and have had 227,718 visits.  That's about 312 visits per day, 365 days per year.

FYI, the cost for the Server has been about $0.0007 per visit.  No charge for the labor that the various contributors have spent in providing the content.

Next time you can spare it, donate a penny, to cover 15 visits.  If you don't, we may have to mail you a statement (with a postage paid envelope) to cover it.

Since you are not using Internet Explorer, you don't need to upgrade, but it's probably a good idea anyway. However, I would advise you to check for updates to your browser from time to time. In most other browsers, there is a "check for updates" function in the Help menu, or in the About... box of the Help menu.

I have installed a new Comment System and removed the old one. The new one has some nice features and is fully supported, including the new version of the web-site operating system, which we must upgrade to sooner or later.  You can now edit your own comments or delete them.

I have revised the "My Partners" feature. It now works better for our needs. The most significant change is that you can enter recurring appointments, such as every 3rd Monday, or every 5th Friday. For complete details, see the Help article: My Calendar Usage.

It also now supports showing appointments by "hovering" your mouse over a date, even in Internet Explorer. The length of time you have to hover is a Windows variable, normally set to 4/10ths of a second. This is pretty sluggish for looking at several dates, so in that case you can use the large calendar, located under "My Calendar" in the "Partners" menu.

A feed from the National Weather Service has been added to The Daily Recap, located under News in the green bar menu. The current conditions are from the Hernando County Airport. The forecast starts out at Spring Hill, but can be changed to where you live.

Part of the page shows a map, currently centered on Spring Hill. Clicking on your location will move the forecast to that location. You can drag the map or zoom it out if you live outside a radius of about 20 miles from Spring Hill.
