WINOL round three

This week WINOL went live at 5 (give or take half an hour due to technical problems) and judging by the Google Analytic stats coupled with student feedback it was a success.

The atmosphere was one of excitement this week rather than the stress and apprehension that could be felt in the previous two dry runs. People mostly made their deadlines, and on the exceptions where they didn't we established a second deadline and that was met on time.

People are settling in to their roles nicely now, everyone knows what's required of them, and it's really starting to feel like a real news room. Though we do seem to be improving drastically each week, we still have a way to go-technical problems need to be ironed out and we need to decide who's best for the news anchor position (Tom seems to be in his element as sports anchor).
