Expectedly I had an increase in phone calls/e-mails during the "Storming Phase" but nothing too out of control. I've been lucky that major issues with different VISTAs have not overlapped so I haven't had to juggle too many concerns at the same time. I've also gotten into a basic routine of e-mailing people about a month after I've last heard from them and that seems to be working alright. Everyone definitely has a different way they like to communicate and I construct my e-mails according to whatever standard thats evolved naturally with that person. I'd like to read more field reports but there has been a lot of artifacts and tangibles sent over so I think we are doing alright.</p> <p>Howie and I finished <a href="http://transmissionproject.org/projectlist">this huge database</a> of all 400 and some odd Digital Arts Service core members over the past 10 years and I'm now working on how to best display the database on the transmission project's website.

I'd highly recommend going to one of his classes if you can get someone else to pay for it.</p> <p>Projects Completed: Some info-graphics and normal-graphics, database of past DASC members and host sites, some google map icons, transmission project website redesign but not implementation, secret DASC swag design, increased Drupal knowledge, some conflict management action and some dealing with sticky situations action.</p> <p>Projects in the works: Implement Transmission project redesign, more swag, increase Drupal knowledge further, do all that I can to help people when they ask.</p> <p>Resolution of the Year: No TV (sit-coms/dramas mainly)</p> http://digitalartscorps.org/node/1890#comments conflict management database drupal edward tufte graphic design information design mapping vista leader web design Tue, 04 Jan 2011 20:29:00 +0000 Bill Brown 1890 at http://digitalartscorps.org http://digitalartscorps.org/node/1014 <p>here are two link to fun web development stuff to look at, learn from and implement - updated daily (at least).<br /><br /></p> <p>The most popular web development bookmarks on del.icio.us:<br /> <a href="http://del.icio.us/popular/webdev" title="http://del.icio.us/popular/webdev">http://del.icio.us/popular/webdev</a><br /><br /></p> <p>My favorite bookmarks on my del.icio.us account:<br /> <a href="http://del.icio.us/memeshift/webdev" title="http://del.icio.us/memeshift/webdev">http://del.icio.us/memeshift/webdev</a><br /><br /></p> <p> A website i go to DAILY to see what the latest trends in web design are:<br /> <a href="http://www.designmeltdown.com" title="http://www.designmeltdown.com">http://www.designmeltdown.com</a></p> design graphic design newsworthy webdesign webdev Tue, 31 Jul 2007 21:51:29 +0000 Morgan Sully 1014 at http://digitalartscorps.org
