A few comments about some of these ideas:
— Places for research:
It might be really cool if, under the UMA project in URT, we created a subproject just for “places of research”. Then everyone could enter where they plan to go and we could map all of that visually that way. I think this is the point that Katie already brought up, but I just wanted to add that we could actually do it through URT and this might be a really cool way to start using the tool.
— Record of URT development:
As I mentioned in class, we are using a system called “trac” for project managing the software development process. I’ve just made parts of our trac site publicly available to anyone. So anyone can follow the project development progress:

I’ll post more details about this in a full blog post.
— Aesthetic / design choices:
This is a great idea and hopefully we can get Jess or Jane or the Parsons class or 1-2 students from that class to come in to have a convo about designing the tool and get everyone’s feedback. I think it would be really helpful for someone in a design role to get feedback from the class directly, and also probably cool for our class to get some perspective on the design process.
Lots more thoughts on all else but we can talk about those later! 🙂
