The unusual site banners are to bring attention to the fact that Labour activists in Bexley are manipulating Facebook Groups with fictional posters. They deny it, threaten police action for ‘harassing’ a fictitious character and then demonstrate their willingness to impersonate by creating a false Administrator account in my name. The banner on display is chosen randomly from a selection of three, with a fourth bearing the familiar Bexley Council is Bonkers logo.
2 November (Part 1) - Website changes
Recent correspondence included a request to make the blog more easily
accessible; it appears some people (actually, having monitored usage, it is
rather a lot) are reaching the blog through the Home page and taking one of the
blog links from there. There are easier ways such as Favourites or Desktop shortcuts
but as an experiment the web server instructions were changed yesterday to intercept requests
for www.bexley-is-bonkers.co.uk and route them straight through to the blog. The Home page
was bypassed but remained available via the Menu. Night owls may have noticed the change.
Unfortunately the technical trick is likely to seriously affect the site’s Google ranking
so it has been abandoned already. As a substitute
www.bexley-is-bonkers.com
has been introduced and will always route directly to the current blog. It will be
used in preference to the co.uk on printed material and regular readers who call
in only for the blog may prefer it. Apart from that; no change!
It may take a few hours for the substitute address to become available at all ISPs.
As anticipated, today’s News Shopper was not able to cover the
Notomob’s
activities at the Civic Centre last Friday.
