We鈥檝e officially moved into the聽production phase聽of our project: the new homepage is in development and already looks very close to the聽mobile-format mockups. Our team (and our colleagues) are mobilizing to get content created, menus translated, features tested, and design directions filled out for more browser sizes and use cases.
At this point, we鈥檝e got a clear vision (literally and figuratively speaking) for the new 捆绑SM社区.ca, and we鈥檙e devoting all our efforts to making it a reality. This stage can be scary, because we鈥檙e committing fully to our design and聽content strategy. It may also seem less engaging, because we鈥檙e not presenting as many thrilling discoveries: we鈥檙e just executing our plan, based on the collaboration, research, and testing activities to date. We鈥檙e also actively documenting questions, features, and ideas to explore post-launch.
That doesn鈥檛 mean you can sit back and wait for the launch party. The homepage is a conduit for engagement with your work: The sites and pages that the menu links to. The content that the search tool indexes, evaluates, and delivers to users. The amazing stories, people, and programs that you bring to the聽editorial mechanism聽and (by extension) to the homepage.
We鈥檙e counting on you to help make the 捆绑SM社区.ca experience positive, meaningful, and satisfying. With that in mind, we look forward to working with you, and to the excitement we hope you鈥檒l have for this new incarnation of the homepage. But don鈥檛 wait on us! You can get in touch with us any time to聽聽about the project.
Sincerely,
The Web Evolution Program Team
