Revamped News at Edtech site
Aula does it again. Mobility event at Helsinki » »Posted by Andrés under EdTech , Joensuu , Web2.0
After some struggling I have managed to come with a better design for EdtechNews that allows to place more content to the front page. As usual, you will find the summary of the posts in the central column, ordered by date. The left column is a summary of the latest comments in our blogs, again sorted by date. You can subscribe to its feed by just clicking on the XML icon next to “EdTechComments”, you can safely ignore the MySite icon. If you host your blog at Blogger and want your comments to be displayed, you should follow these steps and report back to me with a link to the generated RSS.
The right column hosts a box containing updated news. They should reflect what is of interest for this EdTech group, or what we think can be of interest for the other members of the group. You can consider it like a mini-post. Create an account in del.icio.us, and tag your interesting links with “edtechjns“. They will be added automatically to that list, for everyone to see. Again, you can subscribe to it independently by clicking the corresponding icon.
The layout is probably taken from LayoutGala (I cannot remember), and the comments’ feed is mashup of your WordPress feeds, aggregated by KickRSS, and displayed by RapidFeeds.
