IISD's Communications Lab Now Open
The International Institute for Sustainable Development is experimenting! With ColdFusion 8! New software applications, new Web options and open source software. This is our chance to reposition ourselves as one of the leaders in using technology to inform our own sustainable development research and our efforts to communicate that research.
Therefore we would like to introduce you to http://www.iisdlabs.org.
This unique site for IISD will allow staff to continually update our knowledge and information about the new technology we use. Staff will be contributing to a ColdFusion blog to discuss the reliability, ease of use, security and the overall usefulness of each new piece of software we test.
Be sure to check back often to see how things develop.
