What is the best way to electronically communicate with constituents other than e-mail?
While e-mail is an excellent and relatively easy method of communicating with the community, it is only the first step. Even a basic web site is the next best step. Messages to the community should be published to the organization’s web site. This allows the public to review or search important communications on-demand, without pre-registering for E-mail lists. More advanced web design techniques, such as live or on-demand video, audio conferencing and animated presentations have become easier and less expensive to produce than ever. For example, every computer with Windows XP is shipped with basic video recording and web publishing software. Most computer users can utilize these features.
