Hey everyone,

The Timeline View for our Article Index is complete – you may now browse all our articles by year and month! Tweaks will be made over time to incorporate new features, info, etc; but for now, the structure and function is there. I hope this makes it easier for everyone to browse our website, as more ideas are cooked up as well.

The new Article Index

When you navigate to this page, the website treats it like navigating to a tab in the icon row – like a menu within the tech specs index itself.

• You can navigate and explore down to the year and month. First select the year, then select the month. Not every year breaks down into months, if it has few articles.
  .
• The Timeline View lets you navigate a few years back and forth at a time on each page, but you may always click on the Pencil + Page icon to “reset” it back to every year. This button is persistent mostly every page of our website.

About the New Icons

• Buttons are persistent and static: When present in the icon row, they perform the same function every time. This adds to the ease of navigation to the website, with the ultimate goal of helping you find the information you need.
  .
• *Icon and List view: Changes the navigation page to either an icon or listed text view of the page you’re currently in. This applies to any page you navigate to within the website, as long as it’s not either of the Timeline View functions on our website:
  .
  • The purpose of this is to make our website easier to navigate on mobile devices with icon view, while simultaneously offering a text-based navigation system for older systems, or readers with slower connections. Also adds a flare of modernity.
    .
  • If you’re anywhere on the Tech Specs Timeline View or are in the Article Index, those two buttons will instead return you to the classic Tech Specs index page, in either Icon view or Text/list view of your choice. This should add to navigational consistency and make it easier to navigate out of Tech Specs Timeline View or the Article Index.
