Subject: [asac] New ALMA web site on-line !
Message-ID: <490A6DF6.9080704@nrao.edu>

Dear all,

After months of efforts, I'm more than happy to inform you that the
brand-new ALMA website is finally on-line at the following link:
www.almaobservatory.org
   (the "classical" domains still work and are linked to this new one).
This task was performed by the JAO EPO Department, in collaboration
with the Executives' EPO Departments and with the support of ALMA
scientists (thanks to all of them!).

As you will notice, ALMA?s new web site is available both in english
and spanish. It contains a complete development on contents covering
all kind of information about the observatory, such as details related
to science and technology, infrastructure, the geographical location,
as well as general data regarding ALMA's universe.

In addition, the web site contains free downloadable publications on
the project such as this beautifully illustrated book on biology in
the ALMA area, and easy-to-build paper models of the antennas and the
transporter. In the Newsroom section, you can find all the ALMA-
related press releases (even the very first ones concerning ALMA,
released in 1999!) and information on scientific events in which ALMA
will participate. Don't hesitate in subscribing to the RSS feed in
order to be aware of any news about the observatory.

Last but not least, the Multimedia section houses lots of pictures,
animations and videos easily downloadable, which give a good overview
of what and who we are.

This web site aims to be dynamic and constantly updated with new
tools, articles, resources, pictures, videos etc...
I'm sure you'll get familiar very quickly with the new website and
hope you will enjoy it.

The JAO EPO Department
