The new technologies have also created a much more interesting browsing experience for visitors to this site, such as yourself. We hope you like what we've done.
We moved to a new and very powerful new hosting service. We've upgraded some back end technologies to improve speed and flexibility. We've begun deploying new services for taosplaza.com's global viewers. We've begun to increase our content at an ever growing rate. These are important times in the whole world and taosplaza.com provides information and insights about many important issues in clear and insightful ways that we hope provide a progressive 'new media' perspective on these issues that effect us all whether we are physically in Taos or elsewhere in the world.
We think that you'll really love some of the new features of taosplaza.com like translation into 24 languages from English to Hindi, from French to Chinese, and try Arabic, too. There's a way cool new moon phase calculator. And some old favorites are back, including, Daily Horoscopes, Daily Weather Forecasts, A new photo of sacred Taos Mountain every 15 seconds, as well as daily reports on ski resort conditions (in season).

 J. R. Ransom - New Delhi Secondly, taosplaza.com is sporting a new look as we switch to a completely new template design technology based completely on cascading style sheet (CSS) rather than standard html tables. This new template technology makes site operation faster and is very search engine friendly. The new look of taosplaza.com is being configured now, so look for more design changes as I play with a the possibilities of this new templating. |

 New Media is Ours This "New Media" has shifted the whole mass media landsape of the world. So much more information is available about a broad range of topics - in fact Every Topic - now through video. And this is a basic component of the truth. When we all had only the small bits of video/audio news provided by the three major TeeVee networks and traditional radio stations, it was our only real source of what we generally thought of as "truth." |
