Where Did I Find The Time?

These thoughts on Establishing a Web Presence are part of a larger discussion on "Weaving Your Way on the Web ", presented as a PUCESA Professional Improvement Seminar, 5 December 1995, on the campus of Purdue University .

I Became a Member of Web Weavers Anonymous.

• One can easily become addicted to Web Weaving, so beware!
• You will find yourself spending many hours of an evening or weekend creating or revising Web pages.

Perception of Benefits Encouraged Me to Make Time!

• I began Web Weaving 15 months ago knowing full well that few of my Extension clientele were using the Internet, let alone the World Wide Web.
• My perception of the future benefits of using the Web as a new Extension tool encouraged me to spend the necessary time to learn and begin developing WWW documents.
• My goal has been to develop agronomic, and especially corn, WWW documents and have them in place and available for the early agricultural adopters of the World Wide Web.
• For once, I wanted to be proactive rather than reactive.

Has It Been Worth It?
