it's pretty self-explanatory :-)
Megastar Media social networking web design resources and information.
We're all in this together, we of AS2 and even AS1 days who find AS3 a challenge, and who should get completely comfortable with AS3. Time to start dragging our feet and embrace it!
How are you using it? Where are you using it? How are you making it degrade gracefully? What are you doing to make sure applications remain accessible?
A place to discuss marketing tactics for admissions or development on the web in higher education, whether it be features on your website, blogs, boards, chat, email marketing, social networks, etc...
Content Management System
Hopefully we can get together!
FYI, I forgot to mention what school/university - it is Rice University - Jones Graduate School of Business, The University also has an IT group that creates most of their sites in the same CMS.
We are in the process of revamping our MBA school site from the ground up using Ektron CMS.NET 7.6... From what I have experienced so far most of the set up is fairly easy and creating dynamic pages is just a matter of placing a component on the pag…

- Since you are in the CMS group, I was hoping you could advise me. UB is setting up a university-wide content management system and we are exploring what best practices other universities are doing. In particular, we are trying to identify universities that are:
* Using a CMS enterprise wide, or with several departments
* Have governance or policies in place
* Have a form of centralized staffing
* And hopefully are encouraging best practices in content and user experience.
If you can take the brief survey at https://vovici.com/wsb.dll/s/8727g3fd23 (no longer than 2-5 minutes) it would help us gather preliminary information that will assist us in our initial phase of research. If you know of someone in your organization better suited to fill this out, please feel free to pass this along.
We are looking for initial responses by Thursday, October 15th.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me or my assistant Kyriakos Zannikos (716-645-4652 or zannikos@buffalo.edu)
Thanks in advance,

Hello all,
Wondering how many members host their college web sites in house and how many contract the services of an external host? What factors lead to your decision? If you host your site in house, who does the server maintenance- yourself/someone…
We've been exploring SocialEngine for the last few weeks and just made the purchase this morning. It has "subnetworks" within your installation, which I believe will help you keep folks separate and achieve what you're looking for. We bought one lic…

Hi Fellow Canadians,
I'm looking for recommendations on email marketing providers that are based (or at least their server is based) in Canada. I've been using MailChimp out of the US, and it's great, but because of BC's privacy law I can only gath…

We are looking into a tool, software or vendor that could help us develop an online student orientation. Which would include video and flash elements. We recently reviewed Comevo and was wondering if anyone knows of other companies/vendors t…
This company (http://www.universityparent.com/edu) was mentioned at a meeting today, and I was wondering if anyone had any insights as to whether this sort of thing is commonplace, practical, useful, etc.

I work in the Marketing & Public Relations department. We started our first college Facebook page. We call it the official college page. Other departments have Facebook pages, such as the Library, eLearning, Student Services, etc. All Facebook pages…
Thank you, everyone for your replies. The powers that be are asking us to test a new program called "Socialtivity" created by a local developing company. I'll let ya'll know how it plays out.
Group for users of ActiveAdmissions CMS
OmniUpdate has completed end-user OU Campus CMS training for Sullivan County Community College – State University of New York. We anticipate great results from this great group of people, and look forward to working with them in 2010!
Have you looked at http://www.thindata.com/ and http://www.campaignmonitor.com? Not sure if they offer everything that you are looking for but their emails are well designed in my opinion.
Anyone have any recommendations for books/papers on Social Media and/or "Web 2.0"
Thanks very much,
