New year, new look for Interrobang website
It's been a summer of redesign at
the Interrobang office. With our
new website officially launched in
June.
The new site has a crisper look than the previous design, explained Darby Mousseau, Creative Director for the Fanshawe Student Union's Publications Office and designer of the new site. "The content and images stand out more than they did."
"Everything looks a lot cleaner," added Allen Gaynor, the FSU's Web Facilitator, who coded the site.
The new site is easy to navigate, with large buttons linking to the newspaper's Facebook and Twitter pages. It also incorporates multimedia items and exclusive online content alongside the online versions of stories published in the physical newspaper.
The site includes online copies of all stories published since 2005. PDFs of the newspaper are available for papers published in the last two years, and as of March 2011 online copies of the newspaper are available on Scribd.com as well.
The new design has been in the works over the past year, after a Publications staff meeting was held last August to determine the future of the site. "We wanted it to work for students," Mousseau explained.
Students can use the site to get in touch with anyone on the Publications team, leave comments on stories, send a letter to the Editor, participate in the weekly 10 Things I Know About You feature and of course keep up to date with the goings-on of the FSU, the college and the city of London.
