Please, for the sake of the kittens…

Louis Rosenfeld‘s great presentation on web redesign is worth a view — and not just because it has kittens. The slideshow is from a recent “Redesign Must Die” presentation at the University of Illinois, which Rosenfeld mentions on his blog. Hat tip to College Web Guy, who really likes the lipsticked pig picture Rosenfeld put in the presentation.

Go take a look — for the kittens, or for the pigs, if not for the sake of your own institution.

More about Twitter and higher ed

A couple of months ago I posed the question on this blog, Should universities tweet? and received a good response. (I also posed the question on Twitter and got a great response there, too.) More recently, Kyle James has explored the same topic, in more detail, and with video.

BTW, below are some of the responses from Twitter users to my query (warning: some profanity ahead). You can see that opinions vary.
