Website Operational This Weekend

The most important news is that the www.masslandrecords.com website (which includes all Middlesex North data and images) will remain in operation this weekend. The electrical upgrade that was to have caused the site to be down from later this afternoon until Monday morning has been cancelled.

In response to customer comments we have made some changes to the "new" website. Besides a new look, we also had hoped to add more flexibility to the site which is why we tried the "frames" format. "Frames" divides a webpage into sections that are then filled with separate pages. In our case, that allowed you to view three different pages at the same time. Like the screen within a screen concept on a TV, this would make more information available to you. But everyone's computer is different, and the finished product that looked great on a computer here at the registry could become mangled beyond recognition on someone else's machine. Because of this, we have dumped the frames format but have retained the new look. As always, your comments will be very helpful. Over the next few weeks we hope to add a considerable amount of new material to the website. Through the years we have accumulated a wide variety of memos, charts, and other documents that might prove helpful to our users. We will continue to use the blog to announce the posting of new items, so please visit often.

Thanks for getting rid of the "frames" format. I think it is more user friendly without the "frame" format!!!
