The theme this week was all about research, primarily web research. We dove deep into not only our site analytics but also how users used our sites and even some real time user data. We learned a lot and modified the road map for wayne.edu based on a few key trends that kept coming up. I wish I could share our future plans because there is some gold mine things in there but you will just have to wait.

In the mean time enjoy these links of the week, a lot has been going on across the web.
