This presentation was made at the Fall Leaders Meetings at ISA Expo 2009.  As interest has grown in these areas, the presentation expanded in scope and time to include a wide range of technology topics for ISA Sections.

Leveraging Social Media & Internet Technology

The New England Water Environment Association (NEWEA) contracted Bridge-Soft to build a new web site, which was commissioned in May, 2009.  The site was built using the DotNetNuke open source Content Management System.  This allows NEWEA to act as its own web master, being in complete control of the pages and content on the site without the need to pay a web developer to make these changes.

The site includes many advanced features including member only features, a blog, job postings, and more.

WaWWGO (Water and Wastewater Groups Online) is a freemium web hosting service that offers web sites to non-profit associations.  Three service models are available; basic (free), professional, and enterprise.  The site is driven by the DotNetNuke portal framework.

When I took over as president of the Boston Section of the Internation Society for Automation in 2008, my main objective was to implement an Internet strategy for the Section that included electronic newsletter, social media, and a new web site.  I developed the site using DotNetNuke.
