DUNCAN, Okla. - Expanding digital technology is rapidly moving the news media away from static, scheduled, one-way mediums of print and television into a dynamic, interactive, on-line medium. In an effort to harness these new technologies for the benefit of the water industry, the National Rural Water Association will host a live chat discussion on website and computer technology at 2 p.m. (central) on Wednesday, Jan. 4.
This first event will be used to test new live-event software, as well as experiment with the live chat medium. The panelist for the event will be Steve O’Connor, Brad Reed and Chris Wilson, all from the NRWA Data Services Department. Viewers will be able to view the discussion live, on-line and will be able to submit questions, comments and discussion topics into the moderated chat room. The event will go live on this page and viewers will be able to request an e-mail reminder for the event start.
