Web-based stewardship conversations

I have been attending Webinars regularly on various subjects for the last two years. In a previous life and previous venture, I would use Web tools for product demonstrations and collaborative conference calls.

I'd like to try this for those of us who have been given the responsibility of stewardship and giving in our respective organizations. And I think Web based tools may be a great asset. These tools eliminate the need to travel and facilitate a conversation or learning experience that anyone can join either "live" or access recordings on demand.

The great thing is that Dimdim is free. Many of us are facing expense cuts but rarely does that come with a reduction in expectations. If we could still accomplish workgroup activity without having to travel - even across town - this makes the effort that much more profitable and preserves our time (and money) for other things.

Are you familiar with the Webinar format? Would you be interested in participating or leading such an event? What topics would you want to discuss?

More to come soon.

Send me your thoughts.

Of course I would be interested!

I have been using Google Docs a lot over the past year as well to collaborate on data-intensive spreadsheet work. It works awesome!

If we were to host one, what is one or more topics that you'd like to see covered?

I'm just now starting to take advantage of all that Google offers. I hadn't thought about using Google Docs. If we were to host one, what topics would you like to see covered?
