2007 Stats
We currently maintain 220 sites, with several still waiting to launch. 227 sites are currently listed on our VIP page, but 7 are projects maintained by the editorial department.
Out of the 220 sites:
- 139 were updated at least once this year (63%)
- 133 have been migrated to Dreamweaver (60%)
- 92 have CSS layouts (42%)
When we obtained Adobe Web Premium CS3 in June, I had a goal: convert all the sites from GoLive to Dreamweaver in one year. Looks like I am on target to reaching it. I will let you know in June 2008.
I believe that has distracted me a bit from converting the sites to CSS layouts, however. I hoped to have half the sites moved to a CSS layout by now. Oh, well. No need to cram all the cake in my mouth at once. 
So, 2008′s goals are these:
- All web sites migrated to Dreamweaver by June 2008.
- 200 sites using CSS layouts instead of tables.
- Minimum of 2 web sites successfully using a CMS.*
*Definition of successful: the site has officially launched, the client’s staff is updating their web site without any major issues. Which two sites are first is still up in the air. The current best candidates are: American Angus Auxiliary, Cotton & Associates, Web Services, and Oklahoma Angus Association.
Ice Storms and Internets
This is one nasty ice storm. I live in one of the hardest hit areas of the Midwest, and consequently am coping with no power at home for next 10-12 days.
The Internet has been an excellent communication tool during these severe storms, however. E-mail keeps our family members informed, and weather reports online keep us prepared.
Normal posts may be delayed or nonexistent for a short time, pending the levels met in Maslow’s Heirarchy of Needs. Stay warm and safe in the mean time
Feedback
I have clarified some of the articles written about the GL2DW Extension Migration Tool (thanks Steven!) and have added a few new links and resources for anyone working on a manual migration. The GL2DW FAQ page houses all the updates and new information.
Hello, I’m 1.
mindgraffiti became one year old last month…I have only just now had the time to notice! It’s about time for a new look, I think. If you notice anything weird with the new theme, be kind and rewind report it.
