Bogey

- Exhibition Planning System to define critical path and streamline hectic exhibition schedule

- Integration with existing "2.0" techs: RSS to show exhibit updates; Calendar integration (Google Calendar?). This allows change from "pull" to "push" metaphor

- Uses open libraries, such as Mootools. Allows more rapid development & enhanced features.

site: intranet

Blogs

- Pilot project (requires much user hand-holding) for upcoming "Transporters" Symposium (examining tradition & innovation in contemporary aboriginal art)

- Symposium work study student responsible for bulk of content

- Not getting desired input from presenters, partners, or CURATOR.

- Using this opportunity to get "people" (esp. curator) used to the idea of a blog, but ultimately it is in producing content that things break down. Not sure of legs on this one...
