Bang the Drum! The Publicdrum!


We are launching a series of community calendars as part of our development of a more efficient way to distribute event data. One is geographically focused on the Greater Lansing area and the other is topic centered and will be created in cooperation with Artserve Michigan.

We are a Michigan based non profit cooperative of publishers, communities and organizations working to overcome the barriers to participation that keep people with events from effectively reaching the public.

We are looking for someone to work with individual organizations - many of them very small - to help them understand and participate in community calendaring. The candidate would initially transcribe the organization's events into our web form and assist them in using our automated calendars, widgets and community calendar tools.

The initiative has two objectives; introduce the concept to target users and facilitate participation, and to help us understand and rectify any problems in our services or presentation - or suggest features we should offer.

More information about us is at http://publicdrum.org
