    WIKI CASE STUDY - PART TWO

    In Part One of this architectural wiki tutorial, we created the core of a building case study in the Archiplanet wiki, with summary building information and uploaded photos we took ourselves.

    Here in Part Two, we will enhance that study with an external link, add a live building location map, and select and collect appropriate images from a photo-sharing site, and see how to add those to the building case study, too. — Published 2007.1205

    WIKI CASE STUDY - PART ONE

    We've been talking recently about the "wiki" phenomenon of community-created web sites - and what they might mean to architecture - both in terms of wikis in general, and in the context of the ArchitectureWeek web family. — Published 2007.1107

    ARCHWEEK'S WEB

    Traffic measurement on the World Wide Web is far from an exact science, and much of the potential data remains behind proprietary walls. But with two million monthly visitors, the family of design and building web sites led by ArchitectureWeek is arguably one of or the biggest online. We'd like to share with you some of our thoughts on how it's put together and how your participation is supported, invited, and intrinsic. — Published 2007.0815

    MARKETING MOVES

    Computer technology drives reinvention of marketing for architects and designers in two important ways. First, it makes the design and production of marketing pieces much easier by facilitating the creation, assimilation, and manipulation of images, text, and graphics. Second, digital technology provides new means of delivery for marketing communications via the Internet, videotape, CD, and DVD. — Published 2005.0928

    ACADIA REFLECTS ON 20 YEARS

    Every October, a group of architecture professors, students, and practitioners from around the world meets to reflect on the directions the profession is going with computer technologies.

    These thinkers gather to decipher the effect of digital media on education and practice and to explore new options through their research. This year they met at the State University of New York at Buffalo, under the leadership of Wassim Jabi, who also edited the published proceedings, Re-inventing the Discourse. — Published 2001.1031

    JUST ANOTHER PRETTY WEB SITE?

    More than two-thirds of design and environmental consulting firms plan a redesign of their Web site in the coming year. But in their rush to redesign, many firms seem doomed to repeat fundamental mistakes they made on earlier versions of their site.

    There are six important questions firm leaders should ask themselves when redesigning their Web site. Some successful answers to those questions are illustrated here in the work of three representative firms. — Published 2001.0124

    ARCHITECTS BLEND TRADITIONAL DESIGN WITH NEW MEDIA

    It's an exciting time for creative service agencies. As thousands of businesses make the jump to the "new economy" from the old, computers are changing everything. Excitement comes not only from an increase in clients -- a burst of start-up, dot-com companies -- but also from the new media that agencies use to tell client stories to the public. — Published 2000.0830

    A/E/C SYSTEMS TEAMS WITH PROJECT EXTRANETS

    For years we've been told that fragmentation is one of the greatest problems in the architecture/ engineering/ construction industry—and that computer technology could solve it by giving us a common language and interchangeable data models. — Published 2000.0621
