New navigation aid added to athensi.com

We've made a minor (but hopefully very helpful) change to the athensi.com web page today. In the right hand column is a new navigation aid, with all of the non-news categories listed in alphabetical order. They include:

» BLOGS
» COMMUNITY
» EAT ATHENS
» ENTERTAINMENT
» GOOGLE: ATHENS
» GOOGLE: OU
» LIBRARY NEWS
» MARKETPLACE (formerly "business")
» OU NEWS
» OPINION
» PHOTO GALLERY
» PODCASTS
» SPORTS
» WORLDLINK

Unless users scrolled down the page on athensi.com they may not have even known that these categories exist. And a couple of them are relatively new additions to site. GOOGLE: ATHENS and GOOGLE: OU bring in content that Google News automatically finds about Athens, Ohio and Ohio University, respectively.

Users may also have noticed that the weather information has been changed. We've scaled it back considerably to allow the navigation section to be seen "above the fold."
