Hi, this is Michael.
Please be patient as we get our blog and running. We’ll be posting new information soon, and apply our own touch to the site in the coming weeks/months.
We at Martian Graphix hope to provide some interesting and useful tidbits on design, web development, and technology in general.
I enjoy this site, it is worth me coming back
Since we are discussing Martian Thoughts on Design » Blog Archive » Welcome to Martian Thoughts on Design – Design, Web Development, and Interesting Technology , The web is like an archive of information. Whether it’s a corporate website or merely a blog, a search box is essential. The visitor might be looking for something that is hidden within the website, with the search box, chances are, visitors will get what they want.
You are somewhat correct. As you can see on this blog page, there is a search box for looking through the articles. That’s easy to do because the blogging software already has this functionality, as do most CMSs. When your websites are being generated via a database, that’s pretty easy to implement.
However, I normally wouldn’t bother with a search box for a page that is straight HTML. That’s what Google is for. Now you could implement a Google search box on your HTML based website. That might offer some additional functionality, and could be handy, but I’m not going to require that all my clients put that on their pages, because it can be a little ugly.
