The new osu.edu has launched.

Thank you for reading and commenting on this blog throughout our redesign process. We appreciate the feedback we've received since May. We intend to consider the many comments and suggestions you provided in our plans for continuing improvements.

With this final post, comments to the blog are closed. Additional feedback may be sent to comments@osu.edu.

On May 10, 2007 I logged into the redesign blog and posted for the first time to announce and kick-off the New Media unit's most recent undertaking - a complete overhaul of the Ohio State web site. I spent the next 16 months meeting with groups on campus - from Student Life (formerly Student Affairs), to academic advisors and students, to Vice Provosts.

The wait is over: The new osu.edu is running in preview mode alongside the current site.

The new site includes several new features:
* A second-level International page.
* A new O-H! spirit page.
* A revamped Visitors' page.
* Image of the Day.
* A blogroll featuring the online journals of faculty and students.
* The latest O-H-I-O photo submission appearing on the home page.
* An events podcast (Buckeye Loop).
