Webco Meeting 5 April presentation


Update:
Two remarks where made during the meeting. One, from Pascal if I am correct, suggest to add this feature to a "share this page" item similar to the one at Postgraduateducation. Combining Social Media toolsets with this feedback system serves as a reminder of the effect SM has on existing websites. They penetrate them from the inside rendering them obsolete in the moment they are implemented. This happend alreay 10 years ago when the "Island" approach gave way to "Sharing is Caring" one.
The second remark concerns the position of the "Report a bug". In the presentation I placed it in the footer with the expectation that nobody who does not care will not notice it at all. By placing it into the header one cannot miss it. Together these two remarks do make sense and enforce each other quiet well. But those who don't celebrate the process and focus too much on the result forgot why the roman empire collapsed. Because of the supply chain management problem with egypt which produced the papyrus for the laws the empire created by Alexander the great. With the inavailability of papyrus came the collapse of the empire. I am proud to predict that as soon as UM introduces the "paperless office" it will collapse as the empire which had not the choice between adaptation and adoption. And the rest will be history.
Besides this remarks the meeting was timely and glimps of the UM 2.0 site was presented by Tim. If his presentation will be online you get it here first. Two categories: MEDEWERKER and STUDENTS which where on the UM site 0.1 in 2004 will be the hot spots of the UM2.0 site in 20XV.
I am sitting in the training and got promised sun this afternoon. Well, and the DIME conference is starting today: DON'T MISS IT!!! http://final.dime-eu.org/
Last but not Least, Jeroen presented Google Analytics here:
