A hearty hello from the new Signature editors! We hope you had an enjoyable summer. [About Lana and Sharon]

So, are you ready for the new chapter year? We are, and we're looking forward to contributing to our chapter's success through this newsletter. If you haven't heard, Signature has gone to HTML format (see July article).

Our new Web presence will give us greater exposure than ever before. Virtually anyone with an Internet connection can visit our e-newsletter and enjoy the great variety of information, expertise, wisdom, and humor our talented contributors offer.

It's not too late to get involved. If you have an article idea simmering on the back burner, consider bringing it to a boil and send it in. We're also looking for:

  • one or two people to write a book or software review

  • someone to write Kudos Corner, a new monthly column created to acknowledge member achievements

Banner Ads

What's with the banner ads? Well, we're seizing the chance to promote advertising in Signature as an easy, inexpensive way for advertisers to target their market. It's in their best interest to make their offers irresistible, so we'll be encouraging marketers to offer meaningful discounts to our readers (that's you).

You'll get good deals, and our chapter will have a little more money to put into member services.

Monthly Polls

The chapter council is very interested in learning what's on your minds. What's important to you as a technical communicator? What can the San Diego Chapter do to help you achieve your goals? The monthly polls will give us an idea.

We also encourage you to e-mail any of the council with your comments, suggestions, or concerns.

Bon Voyage!

Enough from us. We've got a great issue with several new columns, an interesting feature on working with photo illlustrators, and visiting experts from the San Diego Computer-Human Interaction group. Return to the home page, and click away!
