Greenville Webmasters

THE SHORT VERSION

To meet local webmasters and exchange experiences in administration, design, development, hosting, programming, or just chat, teach and learn.

THE LONGER VERSION

I've been reading blogs centered around news from the West Coast for far too long now - lets see about putting the Upstate on the East Coast's IT map along with RTP & Atlanta!

While I envision the group being mostly about web technologies, I look forward to whatever others want to bring to the table - as long as it is IT related.

Hopefully it won't center around job searching like 1000 other groups out there do already - I'm thinking just plain ol' IT talk, whether it be web design, web technologies, SEO/SEM, webmaster, standards, OSS, security, programming, etc.

A little background: I sat around 8 years in a little cubicle doing the corporate thing - coding COBOL for mainframes back during the Y2k fiasco. After a company buyout and my wife and I moving to Greenville for her new job at Michelin, I figured it was now or never, so I started a local company, "Websites Done Right'. I am very happy with it since it's growing more and more for us everyday, and I think now's a good time to give back by sharing some of what I've learned. That certainly doesn't mean I know everything, but I'm sure I can pass on a few things, and the goal is that hopefully you'll have something to pass on to me too.

If that sounds good to you, join in and we'll all work out the subject later.
