- Teaching old sites new tricks: Transforming the Better Health Channel into a Web 2.0 platform
- Presentation to the Victoria Online Seminar Series, 27 April 2010. Established in 1999 and without any major redevelopment in either its IA or visual look and feel in more than a decade it would be safe to say that the Better Health Channel is the "grand old lady" of websites in the Victorian Government domain. It continues to be a Victorian Government success story – According to Hitwise stats it's the top consumer health and medical information website in Australia and most visited Victorian Government website with over 12 million annual visitors. Given this longevity and user base some would argue that any change to its winning formula might be risky... But, despite the challenges, it is about to change...radically. Gerardine O'Sullivan and David Haubenschild will show that no matter how old or established or well loved a website is, that by increasing the involvement of users through the redevelopment process at all stages, the website has begun the journey into the Web 2.0 world.
