Delivering the Impossible – June 5th, 2008

INSIDE THE IMPOSSIBLE

In the coming few weeks we're going to add several additional features to blogs.azpm.org/b/.

Comments

This is going to be pretty cool because we'll finally have real time user feedback!

Feeds

We'll probably start with RSS feeds so people can subscribe to blogs

Searching

There's such a tremendous demand for searching!

Which brings me to the second topic of this post: searching

Everyone wants to search everything -- and we totally get that. We're working really hard to bring searching to the schedules portion of our website; unfortunately the data behind that comes from a database whose software was last update in 1995. It's a unique challenge, but hey, we deliver the impossible. As far as I can tell, we're the only people who have an entirely in-house schedules application in the first place!


FIRST POST

So, we've launched blogs. No time like the present to bring AZPM in to the interblagosphere. Those of you who read James' Cue Sheet will be happy to know that its archive has been imported in its entirety for your perusal. In the future more blogs will appear from various departments to keep you up to date and more connected with what goes on around here.

We hope to use this blog to keep you up to date on new features and content that AZPM.org has to offer, as well as code snippets for those of you curious to see the magic that Joey cooks up on a weekly basis.
