Webchat – 12 June 2012 at 11am – on webchats!

A little while ago, we ran some webchats here, and they were pretty popular. Now we have the website sorted, I think it’s a good time to bring them back.

So, on Tuesday 12th June at 11am for an hour we’ll be having a webchat here at kindofdigital.com on the subject of… webchats! Nothing like a bit of meta-discussion to get the juices flowing, I think.

Seriously though, there have been some great examples of organisations using webchats to engage people with a policy discussion or campaign. We’ll hopefully be able to get some people along who have been involved in those and share some good practice.

Register for the webchat here – we’re using CoverItLive as usual (although we’re developing a plugin for WordPress that means we don’t have to rely on third party services in future…).

Look forward to chatting in a couple of weeks’ time!

New website, with added blog

Hello!

If you can see this, it means that Kind of Digital’s new website is now live. We’ve given things a new look, and have organised the content a bit better, to give folk visiting the site some kind of idea about what we actually do.

A bigger change is that my blog, DavePress, is now incorporated into the main Kind of Digital site, and indeed DavePress now is no more. It’s a bit of a wrench, as I’ve been writing on that site since 2008, but the time has come where I needed to focus on the thing which is meant to be where I’m making some money.

In other words, I don’t think people generally associate the helpful things I post on my blog with Kind of Digital, the business through which I earn a living. Maybe I’m over thinking things, but at least having just one website to update will make my life easier.

Don’t worry if you are a DavePress subscriber though – we’ve moved you all over automagically. Likewise, all the links out there to posts in the DavePress archives will redirect to the appropriate posts here. It ought to be seamless. Still, if you spot anything janky, do let me know.

This move, enabling me to focus on this website alone, will also mean some more interesting things in terms of exploring good practice in digital engagement. So, expect more handy guides, video interviews with people doing awesome stuff, web chats and webinars. I’m looking forward to it, and hopefully you are too!
