They have a yahoo group that I feel is very strong. I have asked a question on a Friday night at 5:30 p.m. and had an answer in 30 minutes.
Hi Jody! Nice to meet you! I know exactly how you feel.
I, myself, am a probie on the dotcms. Our college recently went through a Web redesign this past summer. I am semi-technical too (I originally worked in public relations before making the swit…
Other than the usual -- setting the background to white, hiding nav, unfloating columns; I usually set the font to a larger serif font - because that's easier to read in print.
I also always add this little tidbit -- which prints out the URLS of li…

yep. #3 is a doozy.
I am working on this exact same puzzle right now. So the answer has and audience of at least two. :)

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 all,
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.
Thanks in advance for any info,
