Let's start collecting ourselves, shall we?

SWAT - MSU - East Lansing, MI

First meeting's agenda (8/25/08, aka T-18 days until my birthday ), what shall we do with our precious time:
  • Talk about my time at Sparticipation!
  • Talking about meeting organization.
  • Projects, projects, projects. (I've had so many people tell they have a possible project to do, so we need to talk about organizing and prioritizing shit)
  • New stuff
  • old stuff
  • How much we love my new Nintendo Wii.
  • The condition of the website. (Burke, I'm looking at you)
  • Talk about Noah's and Sean's current projects.
  • Membership fees!!! (just kidding)

Food will not be provided until next meeting.

I have something you guys should mull over. I was thinking that starting after the meeting on the 3rd we might have meetings every other week, but for individual projects the meetings will be up to the discretion of people working on it. I think we could have more productive meetings if we space them out and make them longer. We can discuss the specifics at this week's meeting.

We also have to discuss the upcoming SWAT called CSS ROX. Also I'm sure Jena wants to talk about Writer's Bloc or something. Have at it, team!

Love,
El Commandante

MSU has a team of Web Trolls now!

This is development blog for the Spartan Web Authoring Team of Michigan State University. We are an organization dedicated to creating websites that do not suck completely. Designing bad-ass websites and being awesome are our club goals.

We currently are not working on any projects as of late, but we will be featured at Sparticipation this Saturday at 6 PM. However, once this summer hiatus is wrapped up, I do intend to begin cranking out some sweet projects that I, and others, will most certainly blog here.

I am Michael Davidson, president and co-founder of SWAT. I myself am a senior Professional Writing major. I am also currently employed at the Kresge Art Museum as their webmaster. I like playing video games, reading books, and drinking copious amounts of coffee.


We also have a google group and facebook group.
