Drive By Blogging
The Lab of Ornithology is entering a redesign for the site and has started a blog to chronicle the process. we have recently re-vamped the Student Life, Alumni, and Outreach sections of cornell.edu with new photos and features. Carrie tells me that the President’s section is on deck. We also added a prominent link to [...]
Long time, no blog.
I know. I know. I have no excuses. Well, no good ones, anyway. Instead, I offer some brief updates about what’s been going on lately. Events Calendar Upgrade I wish I had better news, but the truth of it is that the project is delayed. As you may recall, our timeline initially had a September [...]
Don’t learn safety by accident
As you may recall, my last post made passing reference to the launch of Safety Zone on CUInfo. Since then, we’ve had the chance to gather some (not a lot) of feedback from the community. But, you know me. I’m all about the feedback. And it does say “Join the conversation!” up there at the [...]
Catch up isn’t just for fries, you know…
Okay. I admit it. I have been doing a piss-poor job at blogging, lately. There are lots of excuses, but none of them are really any good so let’s just skip all that and move right to the content part of today’s program. Some Things of Note from the OWC: Bonnie, intrepid and dutiful soul [...]
There is No Shame in Bulleted Lists.
Here’s what’s going on in and around cornell.edu: The Panos you all had a sneak peek at a couple of weeks ago went live this morning! Speaking of panos…did you catch the one for our basketball victory? Another “Just In Time” pano is planned for Dragon Day next week. CornellCast has launched the In The [...]
A Pano in-hand is Worth Four on the Page
I’m about to get out of Dodge on vacation for a week (Bonnie will be blogging in my stead), but I thought it would be nice to share some pano-comps with you all before I go. Disclaimer: These are ROUGH COMPS only and have not been touched by Zac at all. Stickers are approximate size [...]
Luckily, the WGA does not write for CornellCast
I was hoping to have some comps to share with you re: the redesign of CornellCast, but the stars failed to align yesterday. Which is not to say that the comps were not ready — just that the PowersThatBe(tm) did not find them quite as perfect as Zac and Carrie and it’s back to the [...]
panoply (noun) a splendid display
It used to be that the big images on the Cornell Home Page were called “campaign images”–the idea being that the space would be used in organized ways to further any of several specific goals. Examples of this are (but are not limited to): the series of images we run every year in conjunction with [...]
A Road Map Tells You Everything. Except How to Re-fold it.
I like maps. In college, I had a fold-out map of the Adirondack Park tacked to my dorm room wall and I would mark off routes I’d driven and places my roommate and I visited in my father’s Oldsmobile. By the end of my time in the North Country, it was practically neon with all [...]
Back In the Saddle
Well, then. It sure has been awhile. You look great. Have you lost weight? Why, yes, this IS a new haircut. Thanks for noticing. I’m sure you also noticed the new look of this blog (courtesy of IWS) and I’m equally sure that the observant among you even noticed that we have changed our name [...]
