A double-event today.
This afternoon saw us in the Kildonan Museum complex in South Uist. Here, we conducted a meeting with most of the staff, to help with their website requirements analysis. The meeting was centred around a presentation, which facilitated discussion and led to a nice list of decisions being made. On our return to Berneray, we’ll type this up, then send to the museum so they can take it (if they want) to various website designers and ask for detailed quotes.
But before our return, the evening saw us in Lochboisdale in South Uist. Here, we ran a workshop “So you think you want a website?”, for people who weren’t able to attend the Nunton Steadings workshop a few weeks previously.
Both these events were supported by the Better Neighbourhood Services Fund.
A busy day for Nice Wee Sites!
Today saw Nice Wee Sites involved in a large event in the high-tech and comfortable surroundings of Nunton Steadings in Benbecula.
Several speakers ran presentations and workshops on aspects of website design and maintenance. Our first presentation gave an overview of the Isle of Berneray Community website, concerning how we went about the design, obtaining content, involving the community, and maintaining the final website.
Our workshop later that day, entitled “So you think you want a website?”, went into more detail about the criteria and decisions involved in commissioning a website. This was a more open session, and an enthusiastic group of potential website owners grilled Nice Wee Sites on many aspects of getting and owning a website. Nunton Steadings has broadband, meeting and conferencing facilities, so we could demonstrate lived editing of a website.
