Opening Blog Post – US NC

Hello, The US,

So, due to certain trials we’ve faced, largely in thanks to the mailman crash, and all of the fun that came along with it, we decided to strike out on our own, and create an all new US NC website (this is totally viewable at usnc.us). With that in mind, we kind of hit the point that we thought, “well, not not keep moving forward?” And so, we did. The new NC website has an all new blog feature, that I, and the ANC’s have access to. Moving forward, you’ll see different ANC’s, mixed in with myself, writing blogs that address where the office is, what we’re working on, what we’re up to, and where we’re headed. You may also notice, that through the genius of social media, we’ve added in cross posting to the USNC facebook, twitter, and of course google+. For all of you still on myspace, you and your three friends need to sign up to one of these, or you’ll just have to go to the site itself to see what’s going on.

Warning: While it cross posts everywhere, I’m only writing it from the site. So while I’ll try to keep up with comments and the like, amongst the various media platforms, I can’t promise that I’m going to catch them all. If you have questions or issues, the best way is still to email me (or the appropriate ANC) directly, so that you don’t get lost in the social media frenzy. But posting comments to these things is still ok.

That being said, this is really just a test run, and hopefully, the first in a long series of blog posts in which we’ll not only attempt to add even more transparency to the office, but we’ll make clarifications that are common mistakes, discuss where we see the club, and even discuss ways to better help the club, and how that helps you.

That’s going to be about it for this one, goodnight, The US, we’ll be seeing you soon!

More Features the for USNC Staff!

Hey gang!

I have added a module that allows us (UNSC Staff) to communicate directly with each other from within the user interface for our website backend (where you go to update your profiles).  Just log in and look at the menu on the left, there is now a section called “Messages”.  This is ONLY in the backend, it doesn’t message via email, you have to be logged in to see the notes, and it doesn’t post publicly.  I think that once we are all using the site for our day to day department updates, it will be a nice addition.

Thanks!

NC Staff Members – So… now you’re here…

What’s next?

Go into your profile and update it, put a link to your Facebook and your messengers (the ones you want people to know about) and upload a picture.  I have the site using the photos as your site avatar as well as showing on the Staff Page…

Also, I set your login as your title in the org, so that in the future, when it’s not you, the login data can stay consistent, and the new officers can change the personal data that is simple to update.  :)

More to come over the next week or so… suggestions welcome.
