In 2007 the University of St Andrews Web Team (of two) was faced with the daunting task of managing the migration of 4,000+ Web pages from 35 individual Web sites into one new Web site within a content management system. Having explored various methods we settled on using mind maps to successfully the complete the task within 4 months. In this workshop we will begin with an overview of mind mapping before sharing what we did and looking at how you can use this tool to efficiently organise and manage your own content. The session was facilitated by Stephen Evans and Gareth Saunders, St Andrews.

Creating good forms is a tricky business encompassing a wide range of disciples (accessibility, usability, security, etc). What's more, the development of bespoke online forms, and their back-end reporting interfaces, can be a huge resource drain for institutional Web teams. This session will tackle these problems by asking 'what do we need to know to make better forms, and how can we better manage form development processes'? As a case study, we will look at how the implementation of a form building and management application has aided the Web team at City University. The session was facilitated by Dan Jackson, City University.
