Web Image Development: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 21:23, 5 October 2008

Goal:

Primary: Develop A robust information source for all parties interested in OSE and specifically Factor E Farm, containing information for donors and volunteers, including on and off-site collaborators

Secondary: To further develop the web image of OSE, utilizing opensourceecology.org and reorganizing the wealth of information on Open Farm Tech.

Vision:

Primary:

- A simple mechanism for keeping interested parties informed about all past, current and future projects, including progress and impact of donations (i.e. showing dollar amounts connected to in progress and completed projects)

- A well developed set of publicity resources, such as PDF brochures and such, containing information for potential donors and volunteers, as well as a press kit.

- A listserv to let folks know whats goin on, that can even be updated off-site with enough information (i.e. if they are really busy, a quick skype interview), and another where collaboration and discussion can happen

Secondary:

- Development of opensourceecology.org as a main page for OSE, kind of like a portal, then further links from sidebar take you to well developed openfarmtech.org pages with embedded navigation, similar to what appropedia did with opensustainabilitynetwork.org.

- Portal would include latest Factor E Live, Weblog feed, Latest OpenFarmTech updates, and listserv feed possibly?
