About a week ago, three Student Media workers met with members of College Media Network, The Daily Reveille’s Web publishing partner for lsureveille.com.We left the quick, two-day stay in New York City with great feedback and, because of a hard-working staff here and the insightful team at CMN, a host of new digital ventures have been unveiled today on lsureveille.com. Here’s a quick breakdown of the new features.GET THE PRINT … ONLINEStarting today you’ll be able to read the print version of The Daily Reveille online in a pdf-Flash module. You can electronically flip pages, pan and zoom. So now, wherever you are, the print version of our publication is right at your fingertips.RECRUITING IS THE NAME OF THE GAMENow lsureveille.com has devoted an entire page to recruiting, including more stories, blog posts, recruiting commitment lists and videos. Sports seasons — especially football — really do last year round.FOOD ON DEMANDThe new interactive dining guide allows you to sort and search for area restaurants by location, price, cuisine and atmosphere. You can even review restaurants, find restaurant hours and get a map of where certain places are located. Hundreds of restaurants are already in the database, and we’ll be adding more throughout the semester.GO BACK IN TIMEElectronic copies of The Daily Reveille’s content dating back to 2002 are available on the site. We apologize for the lag time in getting this archive problem fixed, but we’re happy things are up and running.– Contact Kyle Whitfield at [email protected]
