Pandan.gov.ph, Web Contest Finalist

I updated the Official Website of the Municipality of Pandan, Antique, Philippines, several days ago. It was really exciting. Pandan.gov.ph is one of the 5 finalists at the “2005 LGU Website Contest”. I was like a kid giggling and jumping when I told the good news to my husband. You can read the news at www.pandan.gov.ph.

I installed a new guestbook and I even modified it so it will look like the other pages of www.pandan.gov.ph. I also reinstalled the web forum but a newer version. Even if I did a back-up of the database of the old one, I was not able to reconfigure it. I lost all the names of those who registered already, so it’s back to square one. I hope you’ll register again and let us make use of the web forum of the site.

I also installed a simple site search. When I say simple, it is really simple. If you view the search page of the www.pandan.gov.ph you will be able to read my tips there. It’s not perfect but it could somehow help you. Try it out so you know how it functions. Just don’t search the words like bugang river, malumpati, municipality and the menu words because it will give you unnecessary results. As I see it, when you search malumpati, it seems like it’s also giving you the search result for municipality. That’s just one of the shortcomings of this simple site search.

Don’t worry, sooner or later, if the other pages have been indexed by either google, msn or yahoo, I will probably use their site search but for the meantime, this one will suffice.

Well, that’s all for now. Have a wonderful day!

I have been signing out with that phrase today. I guess, it reflects that I had a wonderful day today. I feel like singing and dancing just like when I told Hub that good news, but it’s already past midnight here so I’d better go to bed now. Tomorrow is another wonderful day and I’m looking forward to it! Ciao!!!
