I'm very glad to have found this site I have something in common with Shawn Hogan, DigitialPoint founder, I lived in San Diego! A beautiful city but recently moved to the beautiful mountains of Colorado. My background, I have several years of experience in developing web based instructional products and am an Open Source advocate. I contribute my free time to managing, promoting, and working with the PostNuke content management system and have used PHP for four years. I earned my Master's degree in Educational Technology at San Diego State University and founded multi-media development company, vWorld New Media. I have authored several articles on effective information design, have designed online courses, and have taught college courses in interactive theory, how to teach online and new media design. My goal here is to learn what's working for people and isn't with respect to marketing online etc. I have a lot to learn and hopefully will be able to contribute what I know back to the community.
Thanks all -- Its been fun and eye-opening since I've been a bit sheltered over the past few years, i.e., hanging out in places I'm familiar with -- good to find a new haunt.
Hi Vanessa...I'm new here as well, and so far, this does look like a great place to hang out, collaborate, and learn.
