It was a busy Friday. In addition to editing audio for Jodi’s Sunday Page 1 story on the drop-in center in Livingston, I learned that we have finally been given access to our new Web site.
In case you missed an earlier post about Blox, this is the software that will run our new Web site. It means that we can have a much richer Web site, full of interweaving stories, extra features and beautiful photos.
Blox also means a lot of work. We are scheduled to go live March 2. There’s a lot of work to do between now and then to make sure that all the little bugs are worked out of the site (or as many of them as we can catch by launch day).
For the reporters, this will mean some Blox training before March 2. What will that training entail? It’s hard to say at this point because we have yet to make some preliminary decisions on what the workflow around the new site will look like in the newsroom. I’ll let you know more when there’s more to know.
You can see the site any time you like. Just stop by my desk and ask for a peek. I won’t spoil the surprise for the public by posting a image, though. Sorry.
