Organize Stuff / Get Stuff Visible

[samking]

A lot of stuff should be more visible. This might mean putting some of it in sidebars. That includes most of the important links: donate, mailing list, get help as an organization, participate as a coder, fill out feedback. The top menu should be less crowded than it currently is, and it should be stuff like projects, about us, contact, and other projects. I think that http://www.ashoka.org/ does this well.

The top menu outline could look something like this:

• Blog
  • Projects
  • Media
  • Sponsors
• About
  • Contact / Staff
  • Mission / Values / Etc
  • History
  • Mailing Lists
  • Advisory Board
• Coders
  • Code Jam Info
  • Code Jam Registration
  • Learn / Resources
  • Jobs
  • CS Concentration
• Nonprofits
  • Code Jam Project Guidelines
  • Code Jam Project Registration
  • Recruit
  • Other Resources
• Industry
  • Mentor
  • Sponsor
  • Code
• Join
  • Start a Chapter At Your School
  • Join the Core Team

The bottom bar should have

• Powered by Drupal
• Hosted by Gandi.net
• Legal (don't add this link until we actually make a legal page)
• Privacy Policy (again, no link until we have a page)
• Login
• FB
• Twitter (the social stuff could go in the header on the top, like at techchange.com

Jasmine says that more than 4 links at the top level is too crowded, which makes sense. We could probably do without the Blog and Industry tabs to start with (and think about how we can still manage to make that content visible)
