Webmaster Hongbin


The last person I met on Tuesday was Hongbin. I was very excited to meet him, because the title "Webmaster" fascinates me. I learned a little bit about him, for example, he was a journalist in Beijing. He actually majored in journalism. Then he studied information science and worked in New Orleans. But after Hurricane Katrina , he came here. Basically, his job is to create websites and maintain them. He also has to track statistics of websites, how many people view the links. He also substitute popular links for less use links on certain pages. He also runs focus group studies to ask students and faculty about their likes and dislikes on the library websites. It was a very interesting meeting with Hongbin. The most adventure of this meeting was that I got to know more about China. I am really interested to visit China.
