No Buffy
December 30th, 2001I received a special performance reward to day at work. My boss gave the good news this morning. She had me read the letter of support that she wrote for me. What gratified me the most was her recognition for the back-end work that I have been doing. Many of my colleagues are unaware of the value of moving our content from static, badly marked-up HTML pages into structured databases. My boss does. That makes me pretty lucky.
I am going to buckle down and finish “On-Lion” for Kids tonight. Good thing Buffy is a repeat. I’ll never be able to do it in the office, and it must go live this Friday. This is actually one of the sites that have been receiving the back-end attention described above. It will all be managed with a ColdFusion application. Next I’ll need to sit down and document the application. Have to make it easy to maintain.
Passing thoughts about what we should be doing:
- Archiving the site
- Writing site documentation i.e. design dicta, tech notes, white papers.
- Doing something for knowledge management. It can’t all be in my head.
We’ll get to it.
