What's up with the Website?
To the faithful that read the online
version of the paper, you've probably
noticed some major changes in the
site's appearance since Tuesday. (If
you've not noticed anything, get your
monitors/eves adjusted). Our design
guy came up with a cool site design
and we've tried to do it some justice
converting it to a website.
Over the next month or so, the
Website will constantly be in flux,
each day being slightly modified to
hopefully make it easier to navigate,
quicker to load and still make it look
better than before.
Of course, the process of making
such major changes in the structure
and design of our Website is inherent-
ly fraught with perils. We'll try and
find and fix the problems as quickly as
possible -reader feedback speeds up
the process as it helps us find the bugs
faster.
The website is no longer going to be
merely an online rendition of the
newspaper. Already there are online-
only articles, features and special sec-
tions of the website - things that
would've been difficult if not impossi-
ble to implement in the regular paper.
Our vision for MichiganDaily.com
is to create an online student center -
where one can get their news, discuss
with other students and stay abreast of
school-related issues, all in one place.
It is my personal vision that the web-
site as it is should never be 'finished.'
The site should always be a dynamic
entity, constantly evolving to predict
and meet the needs of the university
community.
I realize that we'll never be able to
please everyone with the new incarna-
tion of MichiganDaily.com. The chal-
lenge is to develop a website that is
liked by as many people as possible
yet helps us to simplify the process
necessary to maintain the website.
If there is something you personally
don't like about the website, please let
us know. Once again, with reader par-
ticipation, we can find out what you
want and like.
The process is going to be a long
one, with this site renovation being an
minute step in the overall design for
the MichiganDaily.com website.
By the way, did I mention that read-
er participation is key to making this
development work?
