Jeff,
I though what you have shown was what I would be getting with "the Works" CD.

I've sent out the 5 files to give everyone a feeling of what can be done with the old Newsletters. These aren't all of them nor are they cast in stone, just a good starting place. A little narrative follows so you know where you are while looking at the web page.

*00 Tech Archives1 Contents by Functional Area*

  P1 This is the start of the section from here you can browse by functional area, search by keywords, just look at recently posted items, etc. You'd also be able to browse by monthly edition from another page not in this section.
  P2  If you clicked one of the Functional Areas from the prior page, you'd be brought here which lists all the articles that have something significant about this area. I show 2 articles but there would actually be many. To go forward fromhere you'd need to be signed in as a POCA Member.
  P3  When you click on article, this page comes up with info about the article including name, a couple of lines of description, clarifications and feedback.
  P4  If you clicked on the Article, it would come up in PDF format. You could Print from here. To exit out of the article, just click the X in the top right corner (not shown) From there it would take you to feedback page (00 Tech Archives5 Article Feedback) for you leave feedback if appropriate.

*00 Tech Archives2 Search Archives*

  P1  If you clicked on search from P1 in the prior section, it would take you here. It would also be from here where we would index other sites like Pantera Place, Chuck Melton's info(you'd still need to be a member there and sign in there) and articles in old issues of Profiles magazine. Ideally at some point, we'd index the POCA email forum as well.
  P2  Brings up the articles that match the search. I show 2 but there could be many. Here's where the feedback and description give you a better idea of what to choose.
  P3  When you click on article, this page comes up with info about the article including name, a couple of lines of description, clarifications and feedback.
  P4  If you clicked on the Article, it would come up in PDF format. You could Print from here. To exit out of the article, just click the X in the top right corner (not shown) From there it would take you to feedback page (00 Tech Archives5 Article Feedback) for you leave feedback if appropriate.

*00 Tech Archives5 Article Feedback*

  P1  After you read an article, you exit out of it and it will take you to the next page.
  P2  From here you can leave feedback or return to the Contents by Functional Area or Search Results pages
  P2  Leave feedback and then return to the Contents by Functional Area or Search Results pages

*00 Tech Archives3 Indexing*
  P1  This is the form to enter keywords, Functional Area, etc. This is the metadata about the article and the reason it works so much better than a google search. It does depend on having an informed member of POCA enter this information. It would take some effort but would make the search function so valuable.
  P2  This is to give you a feeling of what a keyword would be.

*00 Tech Archives4 Issues*
  Just some thoughts on the process

We need this or something similar! Time to press POCA's Board to get it done.
