New Website Format
by Administrator on Jun.17, 2009, under Uncategorized
The Website of Palmer Blevins undergone a face-lift and format change. In the upper center-right portion of this site, you will find links to various sub-domains that are part and parcel to this website: the veteran Blevins Ancestry Web, the ever popular Blevins Blog, and the new Fone Smart! website.
In the coming weeks, five more sub-domains are being planned: a philosophy/theology website, a government relations website (revamped), a labor movement website (with a twist), a historical site, and a Masonic website.
Blevins Blog, which is opinionated & political in nature, will still be available, but some posts and pages will only be exclusive to only subscribers. However, it will continue to be a forum for lively debate and discussion in which all view points (except ethnocentric, sexist and other hateful comments will not be) tolerated. Other other posts of a personal, professional or site nature will be posted on this main site. Many old posts will be removed from Blevins Blog and re-posted here or another relevant sub-domain.
Of course, the reader will continue to be able to explore different portions of this main site via “Archives,” “Recent Comments,” and other widgets. This site will continuously be updated whenever I have the time with relevant news and information pertaining to this site and myself. Enjoy.
