Future of the GGD Blog, Part II

Some students from this year's GGD programme have started their own blog (http://mscggd.wordpress.com/). Now that their blog has been established, my plans for renovating the site will be going in a different direction. Google recently updated the interface for Blogspot which makes it much easier to have sub-pages on blogs. Some topics that will be covered from the beginning of the new site include a programme overview, the admission process, Oxford colleges, and the Oxbridge grading system adapted from already existing posts. These pages are now on the blog header, but no content is ready yet to share.

So instead of having to read the entire old blog in the order I originally wrote the posts, there will be one page for each topic, essay length if need be, instead of scattered pieces from 2008 and followed up on say in 2010. Most of the specific topics I addressed in the original blog no longer apply, and I'll leave it to others to cover that instead of trying to completely update the site half a world away from Oxford.

I'll be cutting down on the links listed on every page. Instead there will be a page devoted to general information people might want to visit if considering applying to grad school.

I'll also try and find a nice easy to read blog template. The library motif just didn't work, and there is a blank white page for now until the site relaunch.
