Response
Please reply directly to me at jenise -dot- cook-crabbe -at- pacificlife -dot- com [or
jcook -at- pacificlife -dot- com] -dot-
I will post a Summary to the list if I receive summary-appropriate
information.
Background to Question
I need to create a Web page tracking system, which will also serve as a
management reporting system. I need to be able to flag Web pages for
revision in, say, x number of months. I've already looked into hitch-hiking
onto the tracking system our eBusiness unit uses, however, I'd like to
research other options, first.
Question
Please share with me your experience(s) with tracking your Intra/Extranet
and or Web pages. I need to draft a Requirements document by the end of this
month. I'd like to bounce some ideas off of others who have done, or are
doing, the same thing. Please, content managers, bombard my In Box with your
lofty and practical words of wisdom.
I await with [fill in the blank] breath,
