[Imc-web] An opportunity for the UCIMC web site?

[Jason Pitzl-Waters]

Indeed, I would envision it being a home and resource for all of the local 
arts. With an open-publishing system Newspoets could post their work, 
gallerys could post announcements (and images), writers could post 
excerpts, critics could post reviews...and it would all be comment able and 
interactive!

The possibilities are exciting once you think about them.
