I Want My NSCSS-TV

Video clips on the internet continue to be a dynamic way to communicate.  It is a different media that often transcends different disciplines and experiences.  Maybe it's time for NSCSS to explore this medium as part of it's mission to improve communications between soil scientists, and others outside of the profession.  Here's a couple of videos that might inspire us to produce some of our own.

Chapter Website Project Begins

The Consulting Soil Scientists of the Carolinas approached NSCSS with a grand idea: a chapter website as part of the national society website. John Williams (CSSC President), David Crouse (NCSU, soil-science.info webmaster), Philip Small (NSCSS webmaster), and Stuart Gaston (korlon.com, website designer) convened a teleconference August 7 to discuss needs and solutions. Currently, CSSC uses a Yahoo! Group as a website, however, as a private site it doesn't accommodate a public presence. A CSSC website should be able to handle both private and public discussions and host files for download.
