Redesigned ICANN.ORG launches today!
by ICANN Atlarge-Staff Feb. 27, 2012

Feb. 27, 2012

Sent on behalf of Scott Pinzon The redesign of ICANN.ORG <http://ICANN.ORG <http://ICANN.ORG> > just went live today, 27 February 2012. The new information architecture arranges the resources that ICANN.ORG offers in a more logical style. More than 38,000 pages and files were carefully examined and migrated into the best locations, following extensive consultation with the ICANN community: 1. Nearly 300 responses to the site survey conducted by The Revere Group 2. More than two dozen in-depth interviews with SO and AC members 3. A series of live briefings (with Q&A) across two ICANN public meetings 4. At least three briefings to Board Directors (via the Public Participation Committee) 5. Two public webinars requesting input and concerns Some of the new features on the site include: * All visitors can now move directly from ICANN¹s home page to your SO or AC site in one click . * The latest Board activity and the most recent topics open for Public Comment now show on the home page. * The new Planet ICANN feed mixes almost every RSS and Twitter feed from ICANN in one ever-updating resource, providing a handy tool for monitoring ICANN developments broadly. * The new Stay Connected bar provides site visitors with easier social media integration to ICANN than we¹ve had before. * Across HTML portions of the site (thus, not in PDFs), you can now hover your cursor over that puzzling acronym, and what it stands for will pop up, spelled out, as a ³tool tip.² * For the first time, ICANN¹s site can auto-detect when it is accessed via a mobile device such as a tablet or smart phone, and present a view speciically tailored for the visitor¹s type of device. * On the home page¹s multi-lingual bar, you can click your chosen language to immediately see an aggregation of all materials available in that language. The most recent documents top the list. Note that the changes affect, quite literally, ICANN.ORG, and not other ICANN sites such as gnso.icann.org, alac.icann.org, the wiki sites, and so on. If you¹d like to provide feedback or ask questions about the new look and feel, please feel free to email communications(a)icann.org Thanks also for your patience and support during the careful process that has brought us to this milestone. We¹re far from done, but I hope you'll see the newly redesigned site as a significant improvement in making ICANN¹s work more understandable and inclusive. Best Regards, Scott Pinzon Director of Marketing and Outreach ICANN

Feb. 16, 2012

Dear Janvier Ngnoulaye: ICANN's At-Large Advisory Committee (ALAC) is pleased to inform you that (157) Internet Society Cameroon Chapter has been certified as an At-Large Structure (ALS). The ALAC greatly appreciates your group’s interest in involving individual users in ICANN and looks forward to working with you and your colleagues. The purpose of ALS certification is to recognize that your organization meets the necessary criteria to involve individual Internet users at the local or issue level in ICANN activities, and that your organization will support its individual members' informed participation in ICANN efforts that affect end-users. The ALAC is eager to promote a productive working relationship between your organization, other ALS, and the ALAC (and ICANN in general), and your input on how we can make this a success would be greatly appreciated. We would like to offer some initial tools to help your organization keep its members informed (about significant news from ICANN and information on ICANN policy-development efforts) and engaged in activities of interest: * Point of Contact for your Organisation: Please send an email to staff(a)atlarge.icann.org identifying the names and email addresses of one or two individuals who will be the point of contact for information and correspondence regarding ICANN At-Large.
