Building a Website
in History
and Technology: Lessons From a Successful Site
Nuno
Luís Madureira, Visiting Scholar, UC Berkeley; Professor, University of
Lisbon; Coordinator,
www.Historia-energia.com
Low-cost webpages
and ready-to-use interfaces have crowded out choices on the web.
They have also accelerated
competition for
visitors. What are the consequences for sites in history and the
humanities? How can we avoid designing a clone or being redundant?
Certain starting points are clear: attention to strategy, innovative
design, original content, a multidisciplinary approach, user-oriented
presentation of information. But how to get there? And what do
we need?
This seminar describes the speaker's experience with the
conception, implementation, evaluation, and maintenance of a successful
website
on the scientific, technological, and economic history of energy
(
www.Historia-energia.com).
This lecture is co-sponsored
by the Office for History of Science and Technology and the Portuguese
Studies Program.
