As part of this project, rural VCO’s are being invited to adopt a widget for their website. Supported by Capacity Builders and specifically developed by ruralnet|uk, the widget will help to deliver up-to-date online advice and information directly to the VCO’s website, improving access to relevant information for the organisations network and users. The widget is dynamic and acts as a portable web based access point, as ruralnet|uk Project Manager, Damian Harries explains; “The widget is a way of delivering timely and relevant content and services directly to an organisations network or users. Easy to add to a website, the information is updated dynamically; effectively delivering ruralnet|uk’s Experts Online and xPRESSDigest services. With a simple online registration, users can ask questions across a variety of work-related areas as well as benefit from the cross-pollination of ideas and resources being stimulated and generated by users in a variety of community sectors, networks and geographic localities. The widget puts all of this at the users’ finger-tips within the VCO’s own domain…” Organisations that have already deployed the widget include; Teesdale Village Halls, Waveney Community Forum and Fenland CVS, with many more in the process of uploading their widget.Weblink [...] […] Rural VCO’s are benefiting from the ruralnet|uk managed ‘Improving Reach’ project, supported by Capacity Builders.
