This new IITMAA website, based on emerging Web 2.0 technology, implements the Association's mission:
1) Connect Alumni, and 2) Serve Alumni.
Our goal is to bring together all 33,000 alumni together on this portal. The site is community-oriented and is focused on bringing us together. It will enable us to work together in order to provide value to each other.
Navigation on the website is easy through a series of drop-down menus. It includes an active community building engine (blogs, groups, myspace or linked-in like features, etc.), static and dynamic content generation using user-sourcing, RSS feeds, distributed and easy content generation using a Content Management System (CMS), Media Gallery, emails, Online Job portal, Document Management, Business directory, eCommerce engine, Ad engine, feedback tools, and a whole bunch of goodies.
It provides a means for enabling and controlling communication among groups. It is focused on activity - whether it be social, professional management, technology, engineering, education, research, or society work. It also is designed to be focused on revenue generation and fundraising, to support the IITM Growth Fund and meet the operational costs of delivering on IITMAA's Mission.
