The Value of Presenting site launched today

With this project, performing arts presenters are embarking on a reflective journey to define their role as part of the creative chain, in communities and in society. Today's launch extends our work  into the digital realm. I hope the site turns into an active dialogue and collaboration space for people who present live performing arts in Canada, everyone they work with and anyone who is interested in the performing arts.
The Value of Presenting Site
This public dialogue has the great potential to advance a vibrant and active performing arts landscape for years to come.
The site wants to be shared: using a highly customized WordPress set up, we have added Twitter and Facebook integration, in particular for account creation but also sharing back to those platforms, a bilingual interface to enhance dialogue across languages, a blog post RSS feed, of course, a Twitter roll - we are using #ArtsPresenting and #DiffusionArts as study specific hash tags. There are a pair of initial discussion topics ready for discussion - come check out the project.
A big thanks to Mike of  Little m Design for his superb and awesomely timely technical implementation of the site.
