Yvonne Heath

Submitted by YvonneH on May 14, 2010 - 3:43pm

Yvonne remembers free parking on the St George campus. In the IT industry since 1985, software and hardware have matured to meet but not surpass her expectations. With a keen interest in desktop publishing, she completed a Computer Graphic Design program in 1990. The web was in it's infancy and caught her attention and she has not looked back. Bringing UofT web sites up to date visualy and technicaly is her passion.

In the last couple decades, mobile phones (i.e. iPhone, Palm Pre, Android-based, etc.) and Internet enabled handheld devices in North America, Europe and Asia has made many leaps and bounds. Many universities have begun to embrace this new mobile venue by adapting their e-services to fit the handheld mobile form factor of these devices. This presentation aims to offer insight into the creativity and ingenuity that has been used at other academic institutions, and will provide simple recipes for tweaking and enhancing our new and existing e-services to make them mobile-friendly.

U of T Drupal Users Group

Calling all drupalistas: Interested in getting together? There seems to be a growing number of drupal-based sites at U of T, so I'm curious to see if there are enough people to make critical mass on a user group. Alternately, there is a healthy Toronto DUG that meets close to the St. George Campus. We could always join up and send a U of T contingent.

If you are intersted in participating, reply to this thread.
