    META Note: Jeff created this IMD website, so he controls all opinions here, or something.
    We can probably tag him as @jwatson if we have any questions there aren’t time for.

    Also, if he says something you disagree with, just say #bugreport ;)

    @jwatson Hi! What is the syntax in a blog post for setting a location for a ”Read More” button, and do you have any Best Practices guide for how long a post should be before it cuts to a Read More?

    I just unlocked an achievement on the new site. We’ve been gamified! Oh, @jwatson you clever boy.

    Me: Another note: In the notification emails, the text reads e.g. ”To view and respond to the message, log in and visit: http://interactive.usc.edu/activity/p/2980/” — However, there’s no text box there to reply in.
    @jwatson: Someone remind me to display usernames next to realnames in the Backchannel so that it’s easier to make @ mentions.

    @jwatson: Great call. Looks like it works quite well! @admin: I think the existence of both curated and non-curated pages would be excellent. I don’t intend to retire UHM, but if there’s a nice way to upload student projects it will make life easier for many. If you want to talk about UHM’s solution for getting collaborative projects posted simply, please get in touch with me!

    @jwatson Thanks, Jeff. Yes, clearly, I’m already having difficulties with mentions! LOL!
