Got the opportunity of viewing the new PICT web site first hand, before launch. It’s a whole new look, decent design, great pictures (of campus and other extra activities). I am not sure about the designer, but its surely a better one than the previous.
Check out the page for library and cultural activity… it’s a brilliant display of PICT assets, never before it looked so good.
Talking about the recency of the pics… I am sure people can tag them…. ‘outdated’
They should provide better and latest features like RSS feeds, twitter updates, google reader, etc etc.
It would really make students interact, alongside keeping up the technical essence. Moreover the college would benefit more in terms of student feedback, interaction, public awareness and most important student associativity towards college.
Almost everyone has some social networking account…. Its definitely easy to create a facebook app. Or a tweek app and hock it up with the site….
Come on guys… we are no more living in the era of dial up…. PICT provides an amazing internet connectivity… (I downloaded @500 kbps)… I am sure the hostel guys would know better….
'College internet is slow….' Is just not the reason man…
So many times we come up in college… saying these lines…
“kya profile pic dala hai…ek number”,
“you saw xyz’s goa pics… saale ne bahut aaish kiya hai…”
“Kal ke party ke pics upload kiya kay…”
…… indeed….. we all know what I am talking about….
If ppl can open 2 tabs simultaneously, one for gmail n other for facebook, we can surely infiltrate them to go for the 3rd tab having the college web site… for updates, news, etc.
Guys can come up with such great projects (mini or large)… adding more to the knowledge and putting IT to a much ethnologic use. There’s an whole array of assorted tools, softwares, APIs, ideas available that we can learn and put to use creatively and constructively making Information Technology a better thing to know and enjoy.
In heartiest courtesy towards PICT new website

Me likes the new look...and the host of new improvements suggested here are not luxuries anymore...they have become necessities.....with students becoming active netizens, how can the Alma Mater be left behind?....they simply cannot afford to!.....
ReplyDeleteme liked the site too....but one flip side though.. The content language needs to be redone big time...!!! Not acceptable standards is wat i feel...
