WEEK SIX

23rd-27th July 2012


Our wiki team have all been coding using the Windows operating system (don't ask why) and so were shocked to discover that Macs were displaying an entirely different font to the one the team had chosen! Ryan had been convinced that our initial font was universal and 'web safe'.. it turns out not to have been the case! With the chief wiki coder away it fell to Alex to 'sort it out'.

And so it was, that this week would see all the pages change to endure the long lasting privilege of the 'Verdana' font type - which is definitely universal and 'web safe'!


This week the team has been busy preparing for a human practices presentation due to be given Friday 3rd August. In this talk we'll be tackling the key issues revolving around the ethical, environmental, and potential business impacts our project may have an effect on if we are successful. We have invited 5 professionals in their respective fields to sit on a designated panel, they will have the opportunity to ask us relevant questions and a general audience will also be present.

Wish us luck, you'll be able to see how we got on when the video gets posted on our wiki!
