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.
If
you noticed the orange coloured symbol next to the Twitter icon above and were
wondering what it is, it provides quick access to the RSS file which catalogues
changes to the website and when each was made. Browsers provide access via their
Toolbars but sometimes it is very well hidden so the new icon is no more than a simple alternative.
Internet Explorer and Firefox implement the facility best and they account for
more than 40% of Bonkers’ visitors so it’s probably a worthwhile extra, it causes
me no extra work anyway! Chrome (25%) doesn’t implement the facility but
plug-ins are available and Safari (also 25%) fails to report the date of
the change but as always, if the facility is no use to you, you don’t have to click on the orange icon.
