Uploads were made in stages starting on April 24th, 2005. During April 24th through at least April 27th there were times when the existing system has some incoherences associated with making the uploads in stages, and testing for the temporary existences of incoherences.

Recent efforts have been concentrated pertain to the system of Brief-Essays which may most generally be accessed through the link to KEYWORDS.

The set of Brief-Essays were especially written during early 2003 to introduce the vocabulary of the extensive system of Regular-Essays --- within the context of the downloadable system that existed at the time. A version of the present system of inter-linking Brief-Essays-With-Each-Other through hyperlinks within their texts --- was developed at that time. Only slowly did it become to be clear that it would be possible to make all essays of the then existing Essays System --- be directly accessible on the World-Wide-Web --- without having to download anything.

As a proof of concept test, each essay text of the whole ESSAYS System was separated out into a separate html page for each essay --- into the collection of essays which are now accessible via the link 6. Find Regular-Essays via Year/Month. Before that time, the essays in the ESSAYS System existed only as collections of essays combined by-month; a separate computer ASCI file for each month during 1975 - 2003. The system of linking each each essay backward and forward within their time-of-writing-sequence was generated at that time; with links to the first essay of each month via the link By-Month.

Inspired by the interlinking set of Brief-Essays of the KEYWORDS set, it became clear that a more comprehensive system of interlinking all essays within the extensive ESSAYS System was possible. The question remained how best to do that. Slowly a vision evolved and the current system centered on the link to 7. Find Regular-Essays via Word-Starts was developed. There were incoherences which evolved, almost inevitibly, in the protocals used in the original inspiring KEYWORDS system of inter-links, and the system which was adopted and incorporated into the wab page at 7. Find Regular-Essays via Word-Starts.

The current process of uploading new files has an effort to correct those incoherences. It is tricky! Many files are involved. Mistakes can be made. Changes have been tested on a local computer. However, the only finally sure way of testing the system is live on the web. That is what took place during April 24 through April 26. During April 27 through early May there will be little or no activity here, as time will be devoted to other related projects for about 10 days. Then efforts will resume here.

There are other changes which have not been directly related to the above evolving system. These changes pertained to identifying and correcting most of the formatting irregularities that were present within the Regular-Essay Text-Files. There were many of them! The html codes for the hyper-links were inserted into previously existing ASCI texts via locally written computer programs --- which were not perfect. Subsequent automated and manual efforts have been used to identify and correct the formatting irregularities. There are typically between 30 and 50 hyper-links in each essay's text file; and about 6,800 such files. Thus there are about 272,000 hyper-links in the system of text files. There were many opportunities to insert the hyper-links incorrectly; especially if the insertions overlapped sections of text! The really distractive irregularities and possible hang-ups have been corrected.

Yet to be done during this transitional-phase are the following:

1. Remove all soft-blanks which often show up as something like: ÿ or ú in Regular-Essay texts.

2. Make the text presentation in Regular-Essays be uniform for all 6,800 text files.

3. Provide easy-to-remember uniform-presentations of general LINKS at page-top and bottom.

4. Provide a General-Overview of the features now present in the Essays-System.

After this transition is completed, some additions-to-the system may be along the following lines:

1. Adding to the lines in the link to find Regular-Essays via Word-Starts additional- Word-Starts to indicate for each essay, the most-frequent-occurances of a few of the Word-Starts most-clearly- associated with Virtues-Affirmations versus Vices-Negations-Dichotomizations; excluding ambiguous-word-starts; with suggestions regaring how most creatively/pruductively to regard them.

2. Adding additional word-starts to the existing 67 word-starts, and update related features to include them.

3. Adding options related to conceputally-significant clusters-of-word-starts, to identify similar and contrasting essay-texts in each instance. Probably clusters of two to five words will be considered in natural-order and in alpha-order; with a study made of their frequencies in each essay. Then the study for each essay will be compared with the study of each other of the about 7,000 essays to find matches between essays in terms of non-random similarities in the spectrums of frequencies of appearances of words and word-clusters in alph and in natural order.

3. Improving the helps for using the search engine AllTheWeb.

4. Adding the many essays which have been written in the months following the last essay which is now available on the web. The pace of writing new essays at least equals the previous pace. There will be some catching up to do, and the insertion of updates to the system of links.

5. Providing easy access to clusters of essays which are most-like and least-like the one whose text is being viewed.

6. Providing easy access to clusters of essays which represent major coherent themes within the whole system of essays, in terms of word-starts which correlated with each other, within the full texts of essays, including header lines.

7. Integrate the Action-Information links with the texts of the Regular-Essays and the Brief-Essays in ways which will not require intentionality on the part of the user to come across appropriate links in the course of normal use of the Essays System on the web.

8. Work on essays which have been written in the the most recent eleven months is moving ahead in parallel with the above efforts. Common practice is to print all essays written in a given month, on paper edit them two times through, then have a faithful assistant spell-check and edit the original computer file in keeping with the on-paper-editorial instructions, then prepare the thus edited essay for uploading to essay.com. During that last process residual formatting irregularities are identified and fixed. Finally there is the process of inserting the hyper-links for the chosen frequent word-starts. Those processes have not been forgotten. They have been delayed while dealing with inventing how to make the existing set of essays more intitively accessible to interested visitors.

9. Recently 554 additional essays written during June 2004 through June 2005 have been spell-checked and their formatting standarized. Programs for converting their pure-text form to html-files for uploadable web-pages have been found and are being updated. Initially they will be uploaded without the insertion of hyper-links. Work on the various steps is progressing. It is not yet clear when it will be possible to upload the improvements. Parallel corresponding communal integrative-activities are going well.
