Let's Get Buzzed!

Buzz sessions are a popular event at every conference. They take place after the Friday night banquet and key-note speaker. These sessions are a great way to mingle with members and share information in a very relaxed, informal atmosphere. If you have an area of expertise you'd like to share, I'll sign you up! This is a fun, easy way to give something back to OWFI.

Post-Conference Website Beautification

This is Jack, your friendly neighborhood webmaster, for an update from the exciting world of web development!

On Saturday, the final day of the conference, the Board held an important vote that would change how we do business on the site. It involved switching our membership management service from SentryLogin to MemberSpace. MemberSpace was much more expensive, but it allows us to automate a lot of functions that were normally handled by the secretary, treasurer, and webmaster together.
