I spent most of yesterday helping shepherd Global Voices’ massive volume of content across the divide separating the old and new web site designs. Things got rather hair-raising for a while there between 2 and 3pm, as our Montreal-based techmeisters Boris and Jeremy did battle with the various glitches and snafus a transfer like this entails, and Oso (in Oakland, California) and I (here in Trinidad) kept refreshing the pages to see what had disappeared, got erased, weirdly altered or fallen through the cracks.
But it got done. And well. See the splendid result of Boris and Jeremy’s tremendous efforts at Global Voices, and read here about the site’s snazzy new tools and features, which includes some rather astounding maps.
