potters website concep

updated thu 12 feb 98

 

joanna on wed 11 feb 98

if potters want to have their own website, they'll want to be able to
identify, think about, and address things like:

the tasks that would need to be addressed
the technical skills needed
someone(s) to manage the site
marketing skills
criteria for inclusion
etc.
etc.
etc.

in other words, they need to cover the first part of tom's list (see
below), and then some.

i'm curious to know if there are clayarters who would like to try to
pull off an international collaboration? design a website, make it sing,
handle the database stuff, find a central location to keep the site
up-to-date. do the nitty-gritty? is it possible? i know the skills are
represented in this group.

i can't find the post right now about someone's conversation with cm. i
am curious to hear the pluses and minuses re cm or a new non-profit
