In her column on "Creating Productive Nanotech Communities" posted at Nanotech Now, CRN's Jessica Margolin invites readers to join a new Yahoo discussion group, "CRNtalk." She said:
Bring your questions, your observations, those news stories that bother you. Our hope is that this community will help would-be interns find internships, students find mentors, and people find other friends with like interests.
This is an overdue development for CRN, and we're grateful to Jessica for making it happen!
Until now, we've never offered an open forum for feedback, discussion, criticism, sharing, and networking. We have this blog, which allows comments, of course, but only on subjects that we choose to write about. And we have a monthly e-newsletter, but that's strictly one-way communication.
Finally, there's a place for you to bring questions, raise issues, offer ideas, suggest articles of interest, or basically say anything that's on your mind. Naturally, we will expect users to adhere to some basic community standards, but beyond that, it's a wide-open space for sharing and discussion. Enjoy!
