A new way to keep up with HASTAC

Submitted by Ruby Sinreich on Jul 22, 2009, 10:33 AM

I want to let folks know about a new page we added to the site this week that shows new and updated content as well as recently added comments and replies. If you register on the site, it will automatically show you what's new since your previous visit. You can find a link to the Latest content under your My HASTAC menu when you are logged in, or just visit www.hastac.org/tracker.

Getting started on the new HASTAC.org

Welcome to HASTAC's new web site. It's been in the works for some time, and it hasn't reached the finish line yet. We know it needs more work to fully realize the participatory vision of HASTAC. That's where YOU come in.

The site is ready for user testing, and rather than doing it behind closed doors, we're opening up the process to ALL of our users so that you can start enjoying the new site while also helping us make it even better. As you start browsing and creating content on the site, we'd love your feedback on how we can improve HASTAC.org. We hope you will post your suggestions in this public forum or using our private contact form.

While we have retained all of the functions, content, and accounts from our old site, we have made some significant changes that we hope translate into an even more robust and energetic HASTAC community. We will be adding new features and functions(our revamped News and Opportunities hub is coming soon!), and also hope to create tutorials on how to use the key features. Stay tuned to my blog to learn more as we roll out these new features. In the meantime, here are some suggestions for how you can use the new HASTAC.org right now.
