Note from an Alum
I’m back. Sure, I’ve graduated, but the Temple AMA will always hold a special place on my list of ‘Things to Appreciate’. Its web presence happens to be on that list, as well, and as such, I’m looking forward to the year ahead (no classes, either!). Justin Goh (who’s awesome) will be taking over the web site and this wonderful little blog, but I’ll be a step behind, providing any necessary help, guidance, and of course, blog posts.
I guess the reason I’m writing this is to get you excited about our award-winning web identity. You should get involved with the site, this blog, and anything else Justin may manage. We are the techno kiddies, after all, no?
This is fun stuff; I only had one committee member last year (Justin) and never really understood why. You get to learn WordPress, the greatest blogging/CMS platform in all the world (I know I work for Automattic, but this is a world truth, regardless), gain experience in the realm of web marketing, and can add a bit of a technology spin to your resume. I know some individuals within the large membership base are at least slightly interested in this stuff – or at least I hope so.
I believe I’ve signed on with AMIS/AMA to do some sort of WordPress workshop – in fact, I’d be happy to do an entire series of these, if the desire was determined. So don’t be scared! I’m here to help, along with Justin (actually, he’ll probably have to do more of the work, as there are not too many hiding places on campus). I’d even be willing to answer any questions personally – I’m sure you can find my e-mail. Consider these words of encouragement to get involved with the web committee.
It’s your web site. Help Justin and the AMA make it even better.
