Another great post by Shaun is this one:
A (Nearly) Bulletproof Web Design & Development Project Checklist for clients and designers.
If you're aiming to agree a fixed price for the development of the website, as we do, ensure the project goes smoothly before you start, by communicating with your client at the outset.
Arrggghhhhh
So, my co-worker, people person in IT was contacted today about an issue in our CMS. They could not click any of the buttons or tabs in the CMS on just one Article. It worked everywhere else but the one article. My co-worker looked at it, but could not figure it out, so he passed it on to me.
So I logged in to look at it. Weird. Very very weird.
Well, I still reign as conversion queen. I still get assigned all the conversions.. and guess what?
I still love it!!
That's my update.. *grin*
They haven't had enough time to start pouring the oil into the ocean yet to make it an "oil shortage" and raise the prices!!!
Well, I haven't updated in a while. Mostly I've been running more conversions. Cappers, Farm Collector, Steam Traction and Gas Engine magazines have been converted into the Ektron CMS.
I also updated the Motorcycle Classics manufacturers page. http://www.motorcycleclassics.com/classic-motorcycles.aspx
My boss called me the Conversion Queen.. and then promptly gave me 3 more conversions.. LOL
Ah well... kinda cool in a way. Good thing I love playing with Databases.. *grin*
I finished the Herb Companion conversion. It went fairly smoothly. Grit is supposed to be next, but they haven't gotten me the data to convert yet!
In between, I've been working on a contest page, forums, event registrations and various errors that have popped up.
Actually it went live before Christmas. LOL
I guess I fell behind on this journal!
But now I am working on the MEL Tips conversion, Grit conversion and a Recipe Database conversion!
Life is good!!!
In fact, it's been moved to the Live Server (although currently you can only access it internally)
This is so exciting!
It's been a busy 4 months, but it's been fun!
On a side note, almost a year, and I'm STILL loving this job!!!
on a FURTHER side note, the KC Chief's and the KSU Wildcat's had a GREAT weekend in football!!
Whoo hoo!
k.
back to work!
*grin*
Why is it so important for certain chemicals to be present in order to discover "life"? I know Water is required for human existence, but why do scientists limit their searches for life on the foundation that all life must be carbon-based?
I mean, you always hear things such as:
My conversion worked!! Everything is up and running!!! (I ran my conversion at the end of February... it didn't go live until last Friday..... why you ask? Hell if I know!!!)
Sometime today or tomorrow!!!
My other conversions are "waiting on info"
But the new and improved site is almost LIVE!!!
Cept I still need to run my Forum Conversion on the old forums.. but they are waiting until the rest of the site is up and running, then the Forums will be implemented..
*fingers crossed*
I sure hope it goes smoothly!!!
TTFN
Well, I finally got the specs on my new conversion assignment..
Now.. I am "patiently" waiting responses from the team who has created the program that we are converting to..
waiting and waiting and waiting..
Some customer service they have... I'm probably going to have to start emailing daily to see if SOMEONE will address my questions and issues..
*sigh*
