From the Desk of Demos Orphanides
I'm the Drupal Webmaster & Online Community Strategist here at HASTAC and the Digital Media and Learning Competition Winner's hub. This is a Collection of some of my posts that have appeared on HASTAC. Here you can find some of my musing and ramblings, primarily about the things I do for and at work. Mainly I write about: how we interact and engage as a community, the design and architecture of our site, newly added and upcoming features, and my random thoughts on web-related things in general.
