The wonderful wizard of web is planning an overhaul of the HB. What features would you like to see? Yesterday someone suggested connecting the internal search function to google site search. What else would help you to use the HB?
Thanks for your help.

A link to past posts organized by time, i.e. week or month? That, and more cow bell…
Hi Jack,
This: http://heidelblog.net/archives/
doesn’t do it?
Is that link on the homepage of HB?
Yes, under resources: “archives”
Duh! Yes it is. OK, about the cow bell then…
The one change I would suggest is this, don’t block political statements. Otherwise, with the comment stipulations listed below, an implied link between the Reformed Confessions and a particular political position is made.
It would be great if notifications of new blog posts came up on Facebook – as they do with Daryl Hart’s Old Life. I think this would necessitate the Heidelblog having a Facebook page but it would be handy! Thanks Scott for bringing the HB back!
There’s always twitter. What if people join twitter and only follow R. Scott Clark. That’s one way to get his updates, meaning, if you sign up for twitter, become one of his followers, and boom, you’re in. 🙂
Good idea though, Ben. I have a “dummy” facebook account, no friends, and proud of it. Personally, I can’t stand Facebook. That’s just me though, I know.
I’m not sure if this is possible, but I’ve seen in Google blogs that they are able to use Google Translate to translate blogs into the languages available from the service. I think this would be of much help to people in countries where there are few theological and historical resources in their language.
But also, it would be a great way to learn another language.
I agree, I am Brazilian and every week I enter the heidelblog site. To write this post I used the google translator. Soli Deo Gloria
Greetings Brother Ismael! 🙂
Hey, thanks for upgrading search! That will be very helpful for those times I remember you posted something about something but can’t find it!
Otherwise I think you’re doing great! (I don’t suppose you’d be interested in a hymnody upgrade…)
I want free stuff just for visiting here – you know, T-shirts, trinkets, a complete five-volume set of The Minutes and Papers of the Westminster Assembly, etc. That’s only fair for us yokels having to endure picture after impossibly beautiful picture of Escondido and environs.
