Dear Friends,
I just went and updated my information on the wsis-online.net site and
played around with the functionalities. It's really quite helpful in
getting ready for the Summit and the various side events. (Full
disclosure: I am involved in the consultations on setting up the
website.) On the site you can do the following:
* List personal information you want made available about yourself,
including organizational affiliation, contact info, issues you are
interested in, even a photo so people know what you look like.
* Show information about your organization, including specific issues
focus, website, contact information, etc.
* View a list of participants, including government, private sector,
civil society and media
* Search the nearly 200 side-events by date, type, or key word. Then
add the events you are interested in to your personal calendar.
* Upload documents to the site that you want made available to others
in any format.
* Event organizers can upload files, photos, even videos related to
their event to the website. And I understand that each event will have
a forum or blog attached to it where people can discuss the subjects
raised in the forum, ask questions to the organizers, suggest topics,
give feedback, etc.
I encourage folks to head over to wsis-online.net and register yourself
and your organization. It will be useful not only during the summit
but more importantly for follow-up and networking after the summit.
Regards,
Rik Panganiban
