Week 9

No breakfast so here are some chocolate chip cookies I baked…

  • Getting very close to the new website launch. Felt like I kind of broke the back of the project this week. A good feeling.
  • The new site will in large part eliminate PDFs. Loads of chat over the years about this, mostly on Twitter — here from James and here from FullFact. It will mean that now our research reports will be available as HTML pages.
  • This seems like a technical / accessibility thing yes — but actually I’m also getting quite excited now about what this might mean for us as an organisation. As this article says —The solutions to all our problems may be buried in PDFs that nobody reads.
  • Have quite a lot of usability testing to do on the new site before launching. It’s bad how far away from users you can feel during the build phase of a website project…
  • To victoryyyyyy
