Revamping STDRESOURCE.com ?

[Noob888]

Maybe it's just me, but I find it a bit of a PIA to navigate the stdresource.com website. For example, the symptom checker doesn't work. I may want to find out particular information about a sexual activity, say, analingus or whatever . The content and entire feel of the website looks very amateurish. In addition, the link on the main page to the BC Centre for Disease Control is invalid.

I can definitely appreciate people getting frustrated with the stdresource website very quickly and therefore, not becoming educated in STD prevention or knowing if they have an STD. I don't think visitors to the website should have to go to alternate websites, say, those in the USA where the content and information is richer, more thorough, better displaced, and complete. Even the BC centre for disease control's site on STD's is quite lame. Perhaps if the health nurse knows who is responsible for the stdresource website, she can advise them. Just my 1/2 cents.

Hi Noob888

This is something that has been discussed for a while with our team. The website is part of our division so we are able to pass information to the people that run it. It seems that the biggest problem at the moment is the lack of funds.

We would be very interested in speaking to people who can give us feedback on what would work better. I will forward this information on.

Would you be interested if we contacted you directly in the future for some ideas?

Let us know if you want us to expand on a topic. Remember if you would like to ask me a personal question just send me a PM.

Hi HN,

Too bad Campbell and his group can't approve and provide the necessary funding. I guess it's all going to their private condos in Mexico and Hawaii, just like the carbon tax is.

Not sure if I will be of any help on the architecture or design of a webpage but I am willing to provide feedback on any possible changes or if they decide to setup a beta website/webpage for testing purposes. I can be reached via PM.

Cheers.
