  1. Hi, Leigh. Scott Westerman sent your message to the staff here at the MSUAA. Thanks for the invitation to the Web Redesign Boot Camp!

    I will try to make it to the 2-17-10 and/or 2-18-10 viewing parties. I’m particularly interested in the “Recipe for Successful Web Redesigns,” but thought CMS implementation would be a worthy topic as well.
