SHout-For the Shearites Out There!
The Sheares Hall portal "SHout" is for the Shearites to be updated with the hall activities and to know more about the upcoming events. It is managed by Sheares Hall Publications and is under the technical supervision of the Sheares Hall IT team.

It is written in PHP, stores data in MySQL and includes features such as page caching, RSS feeds, printable versions of pages, news flashes, blogs, polls, search, and support for language internationalization.
