Looks like this is very widespread - a bit of digging about today has revealed hundreds of Facebook pages relating to this across many universities.
I see this every once in a while, too. I'm not sure exactly what the story is behind this type of stuff.
My theory is that it's kind of a "testing the waters" type of thing. There is some blog software that, once a comment is approved, other comm...
I like it - but I'm sceptical about how universally accepted it will be, and how quickly it will grow. I posted a comment elsewhere, which I am reposting here:
I'm not convinced it'll become mainstream for at least five years, probably a decade. ...
Hello
I'm one of the people administering the blog about our student portal. Part of that includes approving or deleting comments that are submitted. Recognising comment spam is not always entirely obvious - and in the last two days, we've been r...
Very interesting, will follow this thread closely. Good find!

I've gained a lot from looking through the thread on university social media policies, but there's an area I don't see covered that I'm wondering about. At my institution, we've had a few episodes of inappropriate interaction between faculty & stu...
Take a look at what we're doing over at nuCloud for folks. Got Belmont, USC Upstate, and soon Anderson launched on our interactive map platform. It's basically designed to be cheap and easy with very fast turnaround. Fire off an email to info (at)...
Wondering if anyone can share anything about using external parties to produce a virtual campus tour? I'm looking for costs and issues -- what're the benefits of going external vs trying to produce inhouse? What are the drawbacks?
Many thanks for ...
Share your experiences using OmniUpdate CMS
Thanks for the news! And thanks to both Terry and Mark for making this possible.
Hello,
I'm the webmaster for a community college who is responsible for managing, maintaining and developing our institutional website. We currently have 65+ staff who update content on sections of our website using Adobe Contribute.
I've been t...
We've been running the ActiveCampus portal for just over a year now. Please let me know if you have any specific questions and I'll try to answer them for you.
Thanks, Michael.
Ah, well that makes a pretty big difference. Then I'd say probably about a 15% increase in salary or $7500, whichever is more, unless they're making a pretty big jump up the ladder for it.
We recently decided on Drupal and purchased support from Acquia Drupal. We've been pretty happy with them so far. Great response times and access to free webinars that have been pretty helpful.
There's no real "professional organization" per se yet. The HighEdWeb group had been working on something like that though, but I'm not sure where they are at in that process.
As for conferences, I'd generally recommend HighEdWeb and EDUWeb.
Mark can I also jump on the wave. dladner@nctc.edu
Thanks
As I am new to the higher ed community, I was wondering if as a professional group do we have a professional type organization?
Secondly, is there some type of annual conference for higher ed web developers/designers, where we can get together an...
Excellent! I too look forward to watching the site continue to grow and evolve.. I personally have this site listed as my main contact site than the others. I post and read on almost daily. When compared to the other sites that I look at once a we...
Thank you so much, Michael. That's great information. We already have an internal candidate in mind, so relocating, etc. aren't issues. This person has the required education and experience. With that in mind, what would you say would be fair? Tha...
Ken, actually just got through looking at both CMS. I demoed Cascade Server and then Omni Update all in the same day. I do not think that you could go wrong with either of the systems. I loved both of them. Both are excellent CMS. But after the da...
Without looking in to the cost of living up the Rhode Island way, if I were looking at it I wouldn't even apply for less than $70K (but I figure in a cost of living increase, plus moving costs, etc. I'm greedy, but I also wouldn't move across the ...
Hi!
Thanks. This is Providence College, a liberal arts college with an undergraduate enrollment of approx. 3,8000. The education is bachelor's degree and 7+ years' experience are required. I'm not sure about the budget. This person will manage on...
One, where is this at?
Two, define appropriate. There's "higher ed" appropriate and "competitive" appropriate.
Three, how many people is the position in charge of?
An adjunct to UWEBD. UWEBD has been in existence for more than 10 years and is the very best email discussion list on the Internet, in any industry, on any topic.
