New website launch

Filed under: The RSA 

Thursday, 21 May 2008, 16.30 is when
we will be initiating the go-live procedure for the new website
enshrined in the diaries of all the staff here at JAS and beyond and
I’m immensely proud of the web team for their Herculean efforts in
making this new website possible.

There are many new features which will enable Fellows and the wider
public to gain a better understanding of our work. The blogs, of which
mine will be but one, are windows our different areas of work. This
blog will become much more of a test bed for my thoughts and ideas
regarding new enlightenment thinking, pro-social behaviour,
neurological reflexivity and new collectivism: in short how we become
the people and society that we need to be in order to respond to the
challenges of progress.

One of the great things about the RSA is our fantastic lecture series. Just this week we’ve had, Matt Frei, Jon Ronson, Misha Glenny, Philippe Sands QC and Darius Rejali.
Because of the high quality our lectures are almost always full, though
it’s always been possible to do audio podcasts on our site, we are now
launching Vision. These will be videos of our best speakers, enabling
more people to see our amazing public lecture series and join in the
debate about issues raised there.

Another video feature that Meet a Fellow, where we showcase the
diversity of our Fellowship, allowing a wider audience to see the work
that they do and the issues close to their hearts.

There might be some ‘downtime’ tomorrow afternoon, during the
transition from the old to the new site. So if you can’t see it please
try again after a little while. Any please send any comments or feed
back to webmaster@rsa.org.uk.

    2. Dear Matthew

    I was interested to see your challenging article in the Guardian today (4/6) ‘Questions for the third sector’. I would like to introduce an approach that can impact many of the issues you touched on in your article, and specifically addressing the point of made by Martin Brookes of New Philanthropy Capital on the lack of evidence for outcomes/benefits, which will directly impact the ability to raise new money.

    The approach is OpenStrategy (www.openstrategy.co.uk) and I would be delighted to provide more information to those who would be interested please email: ian4web(at)googlemail.com

    Kind regards

    Ian
