Changes to myUMBC for August 4, 2010
Lights, Camera, Action!... ok, enough cheese. We have Media!
- Media - We've been working on this one long and hard and are very proud to offer this to the community. Media provides a way to share your video and images from YouTube, Vimeo and Flickr, as well as images hosted elsewhere on the web, but that's not all....
- Media Subscriptions - Yesterday we added the ability for your group to subscribe to an external RSS feed, now you can subscribe your group to a YouTube, Vimeo, or Flickr account and have that content automatically pulled into myUMBC.
- Discussion Vote CSV - You can now download the results of a poll as a CSV for whatever nefarious, statistical purposes you may desire.
- ...that's all of the big stuff today
- Tweaks
- Thanks to suggestions from SEB:
- We've made it so that the default title for new content clears when you click the box
- Events now allows you to enter times like "5 PM" instead of 5:00 PM
- Bug Fixes
- We fixed a bug causing Spotlights to show in the incorrect order or not at all on their Featured Date... we're terribly sorry about that.
- The mail dashboard was acting up for some people, we sat it down and had a stern talk with it.
- And as always... miscellaneous typos and fixes.
Finally, as always, please contact me with any comments, questions, problems or suggestions: collier@umbc.edu
