On July 14th 2009, we contracted with the new web design company and set the proverbial clock to ticking. The design company would have our web site up and running and provide 4 four hour blocks of instruction to whoever we designated to represent us. Tentative completion date was to be September 1, 2010.
We had that warm and fuzzy feeling. You know the one that you get when everything looks like it is going according to a plan. We checked with the company after a few weeks for a progress report and were assured that everything was coming along fine. We were also told that they had assigned a new project manager to our account. Cause for concern… Nah., well ,maybe.
Our initial concept was to have a main domain, with several sub-domains that would be used to support the professional categories we were going to develop. It was our intention that each of the categories would have a moderator that was an expert in their field or at least worked in that field at a bare minimum. While the web design company was busy for the planned 4-6 week period , we decided this would be the perfect time to start identifying moderators, and get some of our internal operational procedures worked out. It was time to get out and start pitching the concept and see what happened.
It was during this period , my prior U.S. Army training had prepared me for well. Hurry up and Wait. Talking about waiting, there will be a 4-5 week haitus for this blog. Many other projects are requiring an enormous amount of time. Must concentrate efforts to where they matter the most, or in laymen’s terms, do work my wife wants done. Next post will be tentatively around the middle of November. Want to see some of the work that is occupying so much time…. Go to:
