Welcome,
View Article  Hello and Welcome to the IAOC Blog - Extravaganza!

I'm Gwendolynn Gawlick, and I will be working as the blog Administrator and Liaison here at IAOC.

We are very excited to be able to host this discussion group - and our main purpose is to provide a venue in which we can all learn from each other. It's "All Web, All the Time!"

There are so many creative professionals out there doing new things, tinkering with ideas and formulating theories - it's fantastic to be able to communicate with them, and have an opportunity to put heads together.

Please join us in the next few weeks to talk, and to listen. I want to emphasize that your comments, questions, and requests to join us as guest bloggers are welcomed. Don't hesitate to email me: gg@prdiva.com any time.

Monday we'll begin with Elizabeth Albrycht, of Albrycht McClure & Partners. She will be talking about building a new communications model based on the many changes that have confronted communications professionals over the last decade or so.

Join Elizabeth and all of us here at IAOC starting Monday, Feb. 14th.
