My latest undertaking is a passion project called 2626east.com. The site is a magazine of sorts published and populated by student work. I picked the name as a nod to the college located at 2626 East Pecos Rd. The idea for the magazine is one i’ve taken stabs at my entire career. I feel like this could, finally, be the culmination of that idea and something that, once I fully breathe life into, will maintain a life of its own.
There are but a handful of articles already up on the site. It uses the familiar wordpress backbone as a GUI and images of the campus or freestock gathered from the internet. The site is nascent, but I feel like this is the semester it really becomes a thing of value for the students. I have access to far more students this semester and they will be able to interact with the site to let me know if it is viable.
I lack a certain amount of knowledge about this endeavor and find that I am passionate to learn more.
