Lots of discussions at the latest meeting, a good deal of conversation and debate about how the group should progress, promote itself and the “idea” of BD, centring on the website as the first port of call to newcomers.
Andy and Dave in particular felt that there were a number of ways we can suggest to people that BD is more than just us six people, and thus promote the understanding that it goes beyond our individual work. We agreed to change the “about” page of the site (and to make this the index, for the time being at least). Other redesigns were suggested including how to make the agenda page more readable. The site needs a major overhaul but until I have a chance to sit down and work it all out it’ll have to be minor changes here and there.
The Consequences game on the Axis site www.axisweb.org/consequences is working fine although there are a number of changes necessary – the main criticism being that we seem to be losing participants because of the “try again later” message which comes up when an image or text is waiting approval. These problems will hopefully be rectified before the next game.
