What's New? - a success story for accessing current information

As the E-Quarium continued to receive positive feedback, we discovered an unforeseen need — how to locate new or updated content. By launching a custom window from the home page, What's New? directs visitors to new information without disrupting the existing navigation. Visitor interest in What's New? catapulted it to the most visited area on the E-Quarium.


    In order to proceed with the development of What's New?, the project team defined the objectives listed below. ReAL Design implemented a solution that achieves each objective, as indicated in the ReAL Results column.
