The Stratepedia Library Depot (new name, what do you think?) has been ready for launch for a week. The server I’m using for it, however, has not.

Basically, we’ve outgrown what the server in its current state can do, and patching it to work has proven to be problematic in some spots and downright impossible in others. The biggest issue is security. I want to do everything I can to keep your login information secure on the site, and the tools our old operating system provides aren’t letting me do what I want to do.

So today I’m starting with a clean slate–I’m installing a new operating system as I type this, and hopefully by the end of the day can get things to the point where I’m able to kick the tires over the weekend. If that goes well I’m looking at having Depot online, with all your data from the Content Enhancement Library, by Monday.

After that I’ll look at applying the same steps to Dossier’s server. This will also, eventually, effect the Virginia CLC coaching scheduler. More on those changes as they happen.

Update: Things went really well today! I’ve got the Depot software running on a revamped server–it’s now just a matter of shutting down the old Content Enhancement Library and moving code over to the new system. See you next week!

Resource sharing has been totally overhauled in the new Library–you can now add multiple files to a resource (if you have a file in GIST, PDF, and JPG formats, for example), and you can share a resource across multiple groups (say you’re a PDer and have a top-notch example you always want to share–no more adding the same resource a hundred times). See it in action in this video clip. (more…)

Here’s the second in a series of sneak peaks of the forthcoming Stratepedia Library. Today, let’s look at the new feature for groups!

Hey, the new Stratepedia Library is almost here! Over the next few days I’m going to share some video previews. Today’s shows off the basics of the new interface and the simplified Dashboard. (more…)

Last summer I talked quite a bit about the new Stratepedia Library, the successor to the Content Enhancement Library you all know. Guess what? It’s getting close. In the next few days, as I have time, I’ll start sharing some video clips here highlighting the new features, such as the new dashboard, improved sharing, and multiple file format options.

Also, early next week, I hope to start providing a hands-on preview to people who ask me nicely. Want to ask me nicely? Just comment on this post–
