mySI-net - 04:40 PM
(filed under 'study')
i've just been using the internal uq (university of queensland) intranet to enter some details about myself that are needed & my goodness me .. what a dog of a system!!
i called the uni to ask a question about something else & mentioned the mySI-net intranet to the guy in the arts faculty who answered the phone. i said to him, "i logged into that mySI-net thing & it umm .." & i paused. he finished my sentence, saying, "sucks?" i laughed out loud & said, "well, yeah!"
apparently, it's new & there were lots of things about the old system which people really liked. these things were not carried across to the new system as often happens when IT are left to their own devices to design something they think is good, but which they don't actually use themselves.
we had a short discussion about it & he told me that the feedback link is very good & to please use it. i think he's hoping they'll make some vast improvements as soon as possible. i'm hoping i don't have to use it very often. it's just dreadful.
