Wow, I didn't know  that so many people were active and interested in 
Squadron web sites. Many of  you echoed my own thoughts and experiences. One 
sentiment come through all the  messages - what's the benefit of the 'award' program?
 
I think we all  know the benefit of our web site. But, I don't know (nor do 
many of you) what  National is bringing to the table. It's clear that there are 
a lot of Squadron  resources are going into web sites; a lot of personal time 
being devoted to  maintaining sites.
 
I would suggest  that a sharing of ideas, methods, and procedures would be a 
bigger benefit  that the examination of the many web sites required by the 
'award program.'  Perhaps there is a way we can discover the easier, better, and 
more effective  tools for our web sites. I'm thinking of calendars, forms, 
photo albums, etc.  The dozens of things that many of us have or want on our web  
sites.
 
I volunteered to  design and manage my Squadron web site because I was the 
only one who could do  it. I volunteered to 'evaluate' other web sites because I 
thought that new  blood was needed. In the long run, my goal is to have 
better web sites  throughout the USPS and I would be willing to assist those who 
can make it  happen.
 
Is this the forum  for sharing ideas? Am I alone in this idea? Can we make 
this a positive  experience?

Peter, yes this is a forum for exchange of ideas, not just concerns.   Your 
experience is a good reason to get involved, you get new ideas and are able  to 
make positive suggestions for the future do to the experience.
