What are the New Features that are now part of this Gazette?

My Wife loves the "Good Old Days," I thrive in the new world of technology!

1. The squares that have photos inside of them, labeled "Video Bar, in the top right hand column, are actually linked to "YouTube" Videos. You can shock your Grandchildren; just tell them that you look at YouTube! If you left click any of the photos, a video will load and play! Now the great part! These videos are automatically selected to agree with my search words. In this case the videos displayed will be about "Patchogue, The Great South Bay, Bellport, and Fire Island." The videos are intermixed with Google Advertisements; a small price to pay for the service rendered! The Video Photos change about every 30 seconds. Just Left Click a Photo and a Video will play!
2. Below the Video Bar is the "Local News Feed!" Now! Why is this News Feed so wonderful? It is so wonderful, because it is programmed to search all media, throughout the World, and display only News that matches my search words. In this case my search words are Patchogue, Patchogue Chamber of Commerce, and Patchogue Restaurants. This News section is called an RSS Feed, which stands for "Really Simple Syndication." Up until last year, this type of syndication was reserved for the Commercial News Services. Just click on a category, and that search information will be displayed.
3. Below the "Local News Feed" section is the "Archive Section." Not all of this Blog is displayed at one time; older articles are put into a file called an Archive. By Left Clicking the "Month," the material that was published in that month, will be displayed.
4. On the bottom of this Newsletter you will find two Items; The first item labeled "Valuable Patchogue Village Information," is the "links" section, which will direct you to other Web Sites that have important information about our village!
5. The last section is an RSS Feed from the New York Times. Like the other RSS Feeds it is programmed to look for Patchogue related items. This Feed alternates with Google Advertisements; again a very cheap price to pay for such a World Class Service.
