> WordPress: Building Better Relationships
> For basic content publishing needs, the ease-of-use of WordPress shines.
> Unfortunately, once a project exceeds 500 pages, using WordPress is much
> less straightforward. How has Boston University made it work? From a
> technical standpoint, building relationships between content objects and
> creating simple to use UIs for managing the relationships is key. Once
> established, the semantic relationships can be coupled with bits of meta
> data to construct menus, indexes, facets, filters, and so much more. Using
> code examples, this talk will highlight essential parts of the WordPress
> API and demonstrate various techniques used in BU plugins and themes that
> help us build better large websites.

> and implementation of the various web-based services that IS&T offers to
> the Boston University community. In his free time, he composes music and
> serves as the co-director of Amp, an organization dedicated to producing
> compelling new music concerts.
