THANK YOU SO MUCH TO EVERYONE WHO CAME OUT TO DUKE FARMS!

First of all, thank you all SO MUCH for coming out and showing up for this event — especially on a Saturday! I was so glad to see so many people from so many colleges and universities across the state.

⚠️ EXPERIMENTAL SECTION ⚠️

This is the section where I mess around with interesting tools and other cool shit I stumble across to see if they might be useful for this or future projects. Basically, everything below that zigzag line above is one big beta-testing playground. Feel free to jump in and play around with anything in this section. The more people test stuff out, the quicker we know if it actually works or makes sense to use as part of our actual projects.

Padlet

This is a really neat mind-mapping tool I found a few years back and accidentally found again the other day. Right now, I think it would be an interesting twist on the traditional comments section or live chat and it could be a cool way to allow people and partners from different schools to leave notes for other partners. Check it out and mess around with a bit and let me know if you think it would be useful for our climate collaboration.

You should be able to comment or add your own cards, even without logging in. Give it a shot!

Made by Joe Amditis with Padlet.

Is there something else you’d like to see on this dashboard? It’s a work in progress, so please let me know and I’ll try to figure out how to add it. You can call Joe Amditis on his cell at (551) 265-1429 or you can send an email to [email protected].
