Happy web design in 2006 - I think its a great idea to link all the student activities and comments on new and existing web developments - it will be very informative for everyone.
Look forward to reading about this year's timetable. Sheena

Eproofed - Information Architecture document

To-day I have finished my first Information Architecture document for the prototype of my site Eproofed.com. This site will be used to support my business of editing and proofreading documents, brochures, advertisements, journal articles and even books.
From my search of other sites on the Internet most of the businesses are groups which specialize in particular subject areas such as natural sciences, pure science, engineering and technology. Most are international groups with a few Australian based groups.
I have found that learning about Information Architecture is a really good area to work through and to relate to my work with new clients.!

Holiday travels

We have just returned from travelling around the UK and Japan. During our time in Japan we had the opportunity to drive outside Tokyo to see Mt.Fuji which is about 100kms from this city.
The mountain stands over 4000m and is snow covered for most of the year except for the summer months. We were driven upt the side of the mountain to where the road ends at Stage 5 about 2000m. At this point we found cafes, shops and a small temple dedicated to a mountain goddess who it is reported looks after all the climbers who move on up to the top of the large crater. A dormant volcano it is expected to erupt again within the next fifty years.

Setting Goals for Eproofed site

Eproofed site has been established to promote a small editing and proofreading business.
Now that the eproofed is under construction my thoughts turn to specific goals for this site.
Four major goals are considered:
A. Uptodate, accurate and comprehensive content for editing and proofreading services to attract:
New clients;
Existing clients; and
Professional colleagues.
B. Good site structure which provides easy navigation;
C. Facility to interact with clients with email; and
D. Facility to collect and analyse information within the industry.
These goals will be investigated over the next four weeks whilst I am away on holidays.
