Dear H-Florida Subscribers,

 

By now you've received several emails from H-Net about the launch of the Commons. H-Florida has successfully migrated to the new platform, and appears to be functioning properly. I expect a few glitches here and there, but the system is fairly easy to use and hopefully user friendly on the subscriber end.

 

I’m writing to solicit ideas on how to maximize the potential of the new platform. The Commons allows for content submitted as audio, video, and image files, as well as for the creation of blogs and webpages.
