Last night at the ALIA 70th Birthday celebrations in Melbourne, our team launched the NLS4 Melbourne 2008 website. About a month ago, we set 20 August as the date for launching the website, as it made good sense to launch it when we had a captive audience, and why not also perform this at our Associations significant birthday.
And I was amazed at how well our team pulled together when I asked for content on each of the pages. It was a thrill to see the content flowing in over a day or so, and the pages coming together. The launch is a significant milestone and proves what a functioning and interactive team we are, considering quite a few of us are dispersed over the country. Gotta love technology that enables us to move on with our job and connect to each other.
By launching the website, I feel like a proud mother who has held her child close, readying them for the real world, who is now lauched into learning, and ready to be filled with information. I’m sure there will be those who will hack on what we have done, but it’s funny, you tend to only hear the bad, so I’m used to that with web work. I seem to be a bit numb to that critical element and tend not to take it personally. And I now know how to elicit those good stories from people I meet or chat to about the site.
Jill – the website is awesome. Great work. A big clap for you!!
Thanks Gem, what a team effort, including from YOU !! So, thank you too. I love the way the team pulled together and it’s a great example of not just teamwork, but teamwork by remote, using technologies to link us all up !!
Our website will be our face for the next 15 – 16 months (and thereafter), so it’s good to have it up and out there.
Pardon my slackness but I forgot to say congrats on getting it out the door. Well done, looks good.
Thanks Snail !! It’s been an awesome group effort so far. I appreciate your support. Keep in touch
