We’re finally down to the final weeks and things are getting tense. Ideally with a full team of people we would have been up to week 3 of the weekly updates, realistically, with just two people the workload is just too much.

Because of the lack of a shared drive, it also means that just one person can do the tedious job of uploading and linking each page, which has reached a total of 50 pages, whilst the other adds to the pile of content that is waiting to be uploaded.

Though things have been quite tedious and frustrating, progress is being made, albeit very slowly. David and I have met on numerous occasions outside of class time to work on the project, but due to other commitments, the meetings have to be cut short. Though, we have both been working on the site in our spare time. I have written a number of articles as has David, and because the website is saved on his drive, he has been working on the site in his free time.
So, things as they are, we have a full gallery with 33 pages, one Spotlight page, one Art page, one Lit page, one Blog page and one About Us page, so there is one page of each, however, we have the content for up to 3 pages of certain sections.

The main issue at the moment is the lack of shared drive; at this stage both David and I should be uploading content, which would speed up the process. As we can’t both access the files, I’ve been adding to the pile of content going onto the site, without the manpower to actually put it on the site. Which is frustrating at best.

We’ll have to see how things turn out. We’ve definitely got one page for each section, and in some instances, we have more.
