Hi everyone, and Happy New Year! Since there have been a number of new members joining in the past week, I wanted to mention the changes that are coming on the TCP website. I'm converting the site to Drupal, which will give it a great new look, along with extra features like an integrated wiki and tech comm blog space for every registered member (site registration is separate from list registration).
One reason for writing a tech comm blog is for project implementation notes. If you are setting up a new program or technology, you can write about stages, tips and tricks, and other items of interest in your blog so others can find them in the future. Another reason is there are topics that really don't belong on the list. Instead of starting a conversation on the list, you would write about it in your blog, then send a message to the list informing everyone there's a new topic to discuss on your blog. Then, people can comment on the post. Discussions about STC fall into this category. It's taking me longer to do the conversion than I expected it would. Some things in Drupal that have been giving me fits! :) But, the site will go live next week or the week after. If all the features aren't ready at that time, I will add them over the following weeks. Anyone interested in blog space or writing a review or other article can start now. Just write to me offlist, and I'll send you the URL for the new site. Have a great day!
