Sorry for my delayed reply, Justin (I was able to sneak away from work for a week). Please feel free to email me direct ( deanw@clackamas.edu ); maybe we could set up a conference call to help answer some of your questions.
We use LiveZilla. It's free and outperforms the software we were paying $$$$ thousands per month for licenses. We have 30+ admissions advisors available for chats from about 8am-8pm. You can set up different departments and it will look up if some...
Thanks everyone for your feedback -- I really appreciate it, and there is a lot to think about. Please keep it coming!
Here's what I've been feeling, just to chime in. Our Facebook presence isn't used specifically for alumni or students or recrui...
Hi All - I know this has been asked multiple times before, but with the ever changing world of web dev, I'll try it again. We're in the process of re-designing and everytime we think we've got it, someone (at a deans level) wants something differe...
What's the PC's memory and processor. I've done a few flash slideshows on a PC and noticed the same results on older PC's but played fine on mine and all "newer"ones.
If you have access to several PC's, check them on those in various browsers. Nev...
I agree with DJ. Our school is similar- small, tight knit, close community. Our audience is by far mostly students and alumni. So last year when a beloved professor died suddenly, I did post it to Facebook.
This may be semantics or whatever, but ...

Does any have any pointers or tips?
Any help would b...
I even did a Google Wave search by creator:mark.a.greenfield@gmail.com and NO LUCK.
Mark, I final got an invite and hooked up but I cannot find the "Google Wave in Higher Education" wave. Whenever I try and search for this particular wave I get "no results..". Please direct me in finding the correct wave as whenever I search just...
These kinds of conversations can help define what we consider news and whether Facebook is the right place to deliver news--as opposed to the university's home page.
Brenden's post refers to "news-ish" items, and I too find myself grappling with ...

Does anyone have a custom web page for mobile users? If so, did your University develop the page internall or did you farm out development to a third party? I am investigating solutions to create a mobile-friendly page at a reasonable cost.
I agree 100%.

Check out the article by Lance Merker, President and CEO of OmniUpdate, published online by University Business, November/December 2009.It discusses the pros and cons of Software as a Service (SaaS), and the implications of on-demand technology fo...
Mark, I got my Google Wave invite. How do I find your Wave. I did a search for Google Wave In Higher Education and the search results come back no results found. Does anyone else have Wave I can follow?
It seems to me a lot of it depends on who your fans are (the mantra of one of my marketing mentors keeps coming back to me: "Know your audience").
We are a graduate level seminary, and all but a few of our fans are students and alumni. If news (g...

With your work in Web Communications, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service.
