• Tyson ad the blog team:

  This update is great! Not that I didn’t like the blog format, but this is much more professional, useful and informative. Great work. I can’t wait to see how it evolves.

• A nice surprise to be sure. Now, what’s next?

• I think you’ll like EE.

  Are you now going to spend some time on actual development? Templates are nice, repackaging old content for this space is nice too . . . but key, I would think, would be to tie in the active databases to pop up new job posts and other member services.  Oh and be “web smart” about it, too. Will you give us discrete RSS feeds for the content areas we are interested in?

  One more thing. Never, ever redesign a Web site and forget to include a search bar. Tsk, Tsk.

• There are separate RSS feeds for the following sections: All Posts, Articles Only, News, Miscellany or Calendar Items.

  Many more features are in the queue…

• Great. Pl ping me when you produce some, perhaps, more useful ones like a feed for job listings, and one for member moves, one for training events, one for tutorials, one for videos, one for comments, etc . . .

  thanks

• I think this is an excellent upgrade. Please, keep up the good work. You are providing SND members a great service.

• OK. I am not one to shower criticism without also spending at least as much effort in offering to help with a solution.

  Here you go - An RSS feed for the SND Job Bank.

  Now, let me know if you need any help displaying these headlines on your page(s)

• i can’t find anything or know when there’s new content (unless it’s the main thing on the page). didn’t know this post existed or saw the heidi de laubenfels news until now. maybe i’m just used to / prefer the old blog format.

• I’m with Martin, this site is a step back from the previous iteration. It’s hard to navigate, and the design and typography is not effectively separating interactive items from content pieces. The increased width could be used more effectively, and the items over in the right side should be smaller and crisper.

  Also, lots of gray contributes to the low contrast feel. Instead of using all the #333 on the #CCC background, use #000 for header text, or find a nice highlight color other than that turquoise color.

  Or, just hire Upstatement to redesign this mofo.

• Zing! You’ll have to wait in line. A long, curvy, undulating line…
