Next Steps for Development of This Site

This morning Julie Peterson and I met at the Heartland Cafe in Rogers Park to bring this new incarntion of ChicagoCoop.net into existance. Julie had a huge salad and I had an excellent omlette. Anyway, enough about us, what about this site? We have some plans for next steps and would love for you to be a part of them. Here’s what we’re thinking:

We need to invite organizers of Chicago co-ops to contribute (setting up logins for each one).
We need to craft an email with basic instructions for interested folks.
We need to have a face to face event where we can walk people through what we’ve done so far and get them started as contributors (administrators, actually).
We need an image to replace that green monster up there.
We need to either set up a new email list or resurrect the previous Chicago co-op email list. Until we have the formal list, we’ll just send an email to the people we know are interested and everyone to reply-all so we’ll have an informal list for the time being.
After all that, we’ll need to promote the site.

Welcome to the new Chicago Co-op dot Net!
