CWS Blog Topics

We are adding new topics to our blog that you'll start seeing on a regular basis. In order for you to appreciate them, we decided to do a little background about what they are and why we think they are important.

Web2.0: If you haven't noticed, there is a plethora of new buzz words out there. I know, you're thinking that you just finally learned about keywords, META tags, and how to write content that is "search engine optimized". Now we have a whole new range of technologies hitting the scene. They have been dubbed "Web2.0" and include topics like RSS feeds, Tags, Blogs, Diggs, AJAX, and websites like Flickr, Digg, and del.icio.us. We'll begin to feature a new "Web2.0" topic on a regular basis; why it's important, how it can help you, and what the future might hold. You'll see these posts start with "Web2.0:".

Innovation Award: The second topic we're adding is the CWS "Innovation Award". This special "award" wins you nothing more than a mention on our blog and a "hats off" by our design team. We'll be searching the internet for LOCAL websites that deserve special recognition. The one thing that these websites will all have in common is that they will display a "creative use of the web". This award will be given for a design element that impresses our staff, it's that simple. We'll explain what was done right, why we were impressed, and provide a link to the website. You'll see these posts begin with "Innovation Award:".

As with any blog, your involvement is important to its success. If you notice something on a local website that catches your eye, let us know... it might just be given an "Innovation Award".
