I am meeting today with Jess Rosales, the Web admin for Komen Austin, to go over my page ideas and see how they fit into the present site. Jess is responsible for pretty much everything about the Web site, so hopefully i will be able to temper my stepping on her toes by offering to help her fix stuff. The National site has just been redesigned - and looks great! but apparently they've decided that everyone had broadband these days - so now a whole bunch of links on our page to theirs are dead. And their redirect just send you to their homepage, which sucks. I met again with Ramona to talk about where we're at and how best to approach Jess, and she pointed out that all these meetings pretty much reflect the real life process, at least in the Komen Austin world. Getting everyone on board, smoothing feathers, etc. So it is good preparation I guess!
I anticipate Jess will have lots to say about my scheme, and then I will get the final-ish versions of the pages done in Convio over the next week. I'll do some usability testing on them the week of Thanksgiving and then finish it all up the last week of the semester. This project is pretty much guaranteed to go on beyond that, as I get more feedback. In addition, although it is beyond the scope of my project, the site really needs a search function, also. Ramona has been good to me and I want to be sure I've done right by them and made this site as workable as possible.
