Culminating Experience Part I

Whew....it's been a crazy  1 1/2 weeks.    For those of you who don't know.... I work part-time for an online school and don't have a classroom or school to create a page for.

So I am re-creating a page for Toward Community (a volunteer organization I am a member of).  While they do have a website, it isn't so useful as it uses somewhat specialized software.  So, I have taken it upon myself to migrate it to a google site to that more of the members can easily edit it.

I also want to integrate some other things like a tool to automatically disseminate information posted in Facebook, etc.  I'm going to look into a tool that someone can text to and it will automatically tween and post to facebook.  I will start looking in the google apps as I would like there to be a comment section in the site that can be automatically updateable. (Not a word, I know).

I would also like to find a way to "pre-program" content so that something is being posted every couple of days even if I or someone else doesn't actually post something.  It could be a quote or thought provoking question.... something.    

Needless to say, I'm excited to see what I can find out because I will be able to use these tools in other websites and projects I'm working on.
