Thinking through “A Brighter Web”

We’ve been running various aspect of A Brighter Web, an educational arm of our agency, for quite a while now. We’ve hosted our Meetup every month (sometimes more) for about nine years now, we have a reasonably active Facebook group, and we’ve played with podcasting and other media.

So what’s next?

To be honest, I’m not sure. We’ll likely be streamlining the website in the coming months — hosting less content on there, and pushing more to the outlets that we use (like Meetup and Facebook).

We’ve had a Slack team going for a while, but we’ve not really invested in it and it’s essentially dead. That’s likely for the best.

We may be firing up the podcast again in the next few months, but we’re still undecided on that.

I’ve been playing with the new TogetherLetters app for the past few months with some small groups, and I’ll likely open it up to the main users of A Brighter Web once they start allowing larger groups to join. If you’ve not seen it yet, it’s a neat concept. Check out the “see how it works” video on their home page.

We have a lot of options in front of us, and it’s fun to start plotting out a path for the future. If nothing else, we’ll keep hosting the monthly Meetups for the foreseeable future, so come check them out and join us!
