November 2008 - Main Street 2.0

Zehner Consulting has assembled an excellent session team to present at the 2009 National Main Street Conference: Becoming Main Street 2.0

Morgan will be joined by Richard Layman, the founder and author of Rebuilding Place in Urban Space and an Associate with Economic Development Visions and The Downtown Entrepreneurship Project, and Kris Steigerwald, a software developer with the start-up, internet based recruiting and employment network Visual CV.

The session is entitled Make the Internet Work For You: How to Utilize Web Applications and will focus on how commercial district management and community organizations can conduct and deliver services in the Web 2.0 world, focusing on the effective use of Internet-based applications for organizational communications, project management and professional development. Richard, Kris and I will teach attendees how to choose appropriate technology applications and apply them to specific organizational objectives in order to accomplish tasks and manage projects. We’ll explore using Google Docs, file-sending software like send6, web logs, flickr, wikis, Basecamp, and more.
