New interactive college Web site

« Memorial service tonight for RU student Bobby Thomason | Host families sought for Russian visit to Blacksburg »

2008.09.24

Saw a story in the New York Times this weekend on an interesting new interactive Web site that allows students to write reviews of their school. The site, Unigo.com, contains photos and video too. Think Wikipedia meets Facebook meets The Princeton Review.

For what it's worth, the introduction and the reviews of the two schools I know best -- Virginia Tech and Washington and Lee University -- are pretty dead on.
