Archipelagos blog
Comments(2) Although the revitalization and redesign of Archipelagos website hasn’t finished there is a new section of the website that is gaining momentum. Let’s call it beta stage blog. Not all the kinks have been ironed out, there are likely to be some changes as things develop and more content finds its way online but I guess it’s far enough to make it public.
The way it works is that each member of the team is supposed to write a short summary of their work in the past week. Since we already have internal weekly presentations at the terrestrial base this isn’t much of a stretch or bother (might be more so for the marine team) and will hopefuly do a better job of informing the general public of the work being done than the old website. From what I’ve discussed and learned in the past months it became clear that most locals are aware of the organisation but in general have no idea what’s going on up here.
Well, it was about time for such a move. May I assume this was your idea?
I can’t and won’t take the credit for this. I had the idea a long time ago when I made a draft for website redesign but nothing happened until now with the total change of the system it is running on.
Two greeks came for a week long visit to get things going and we did discuss several ideas I had earlier. I also proposed the blog engine and helped get it online and running (it is the same I’m using here), helped with any problems users had etc. but ultimately it was not my work or my ideas that got things rolling. I just assisted with whatever I could while doing other things.
