Hi Andy This email is a progress report about organising our online academic-practitioners forum. I am publishing this email on my personal space at dadamac.net, as well as sending you a personal email, so I will briefly go over old ground before moving on.

Moving in - Useful Links

I am looking at my email inbox and thinking what emails I should choose to reply to as I "move in" to my space here at dadamac.net.

The community and the website

My reply to Vijay . Hi Vijay I am glad you feel you are getting a good idea of who we are and what we do. You explained what you have already learned about us through the website.

Some First Answers

My reply to Vijay's last letter. Hi Vijay I'm glad you like the idea of the website as our "reception area", and the fact that it will link through to the "back offices". I can understand your confusion about Dadamac. I believe that as the reception area begins to link up better with the "back offices" things will become clearer. Meanwhile your questions will help me to know what I should try to collect from the "back offices" for people to see when they first "arrive here". Your questions and observations are all very useful. Thanks too for mentioning that...

This is my Reply to Vijay's last letter Hi Vijay I am excited about our open-letter, learn-by-doing, project. Thank you for agreeing to give it a go - and welcome to your new role in the Dadamac Community. Maybe, like you, I should start by giving my impression of our initial exchange of emails. I was glad to hear from you. You have skills that we really need here. You are a professional communicator - and interested in effective use of websites and such like.
