There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

"There's something very important about publishing your work, sharing it and then owning it. You can publish and share on Facebook and Instagram, but you don't entirely own it," said alumnus John Saddington about his recently launched app, Pressgram, and how it differentiates in important ways from its competitors Facebook and Instagram. "What's nice is the place of origin is your property. You get to own it and you get to decide what you want to do with it." Saddington is a graduate of the School of Literature, Media, and Communication. Source: CBS, October 7, 2013
