UCMP website transformation |
||
So, are we satisfied? No! Of course not. Sure, we could sit back and coast on our storied past, but the truth is that it takes work to stay on top. With this in mind, we have embarked on an ambitious website overhaul project. Elements of this project include improved navigation and user interface, a graphical makeover, a modernized technological infrastructure, a site-wide information audit, and new content features. Users will be able to experience the UCMP like never before, with podcasts, web-cams, and profiles of the exciting research happening at the museum. It is a colossal undertaking that will require the participation of the entire UCMP community. We are pleased that so many of you have enjoyed the UCMP websites over the years. It may surprise you to learn that the main UCMP website, ucmp.berkeley.edu, has never received any external funding to support its construction or maintenance. However, we hope that you will consider helping us with the overhaul of the UCMP site by making a contribution toward the effort. All donors will be listed on the website. Simply fill out the Friends of UCMP form and indicate that you would like to support our website improvement project. Work has already begun, so keep your eyes on ucmp.berkeley.edu, and expect to see some
big changes in 2006. |
