The Blog has Moved!

Significant progress was made in the past year to improve and to extend the Institute’s electronic footprint. The next step is to consolidate all of our communications on one platform. Thus, as of this blog all future blogs will be found at the CIG website (www.cig-icg.gr) under the heading “Blog”, no less!

We will retain the address cig-icg.blogspot.gr as the Archive of the CIG Blog which started in January, 2011 through today’s “final” blog. The link on this blog will take you to the CIG website.

In the new location I look forward to continue sharing with our readers and supporters news relating to the Institute, announcements of lectures/events at CIG and in Athens, comments on archaeological topics relating to Greece, guest blogs from our fieldwork projects and images from the Frederick Winter B/W Negative Collection.

Cordially,
David Rupp
Director

CIG Online

It's been a little while since I've posted a blog all about what's going on at the CIG with our social media.  Over the last year we've been busy trying to increase the ways you can partake with the CIG online.  First and foremost we've been keenly working on this blog and posting regularly to make sure you're up to date with what's going on here at the CIG.  To make sure you can keep up with the blog entries, we've set up Facebook and Twitter to send you a reminder every time we have a new post.

But there's more than just blogs for us.  We've also been working over the last few years to set up live streaming and a Youtube channel for our lectures.  Keep an eye on our schedule of events, but if you can't make it, or if you're out of town, you can watch all of our lectures on our live feed.  We've spent the last year or so trying to improve the quality of the feed, and we'll continue to work on it.  Make sure to let us know if you've watched one of our lectures, and let us know how it went.  If you happened to miss one of the lectures, some are now becoming available on Youtube.

We're still trying to improve our social media presence, and always looking for ways to serve you better online.  Most importantly we want to make sure that those that don't live in Greece have as many opportunities as possible to interact with us, and are able to participate from far away.
