On several occasions over the past few weeks I've been sent documents (Word and Excel) that have been created using Microsoft Office 2007. If you weren't aware, documents produced in Office 2007 are not compatible with Office 2003 (the version I still use).

Downtown New Bedford, Inc. Launch Redesigned Web Site

no@spam.com (Paul Allen) — Sat, 05 May 2007 13:25:54 CDT

One of Donna Motta's first pieces of business as Downtown New Bedford, Inc.'s new Executive Director was to enhance the organization's web site. The existing site was several years old and no longer suited how the organization wanted to present itself to the community.

Many enhancements were made to the new web site, including improvements to the navigation structure, color scheme and layout.

A significant enhancement was the integration of New Bedford Internet's acclaimed web site editing software - InCommand. With InCommand, the DNB, Inc. staff will be able to edit virtually any portion of their web site without having to rely on a "webmaster" to do it for them. At any time of the day or night, and from any computer connected to the internet, the DNB,Inc. staff will be able to change their site's content - text and photos can all be added and edited using InCommand.

"InCommand is a much more affordable way to edit a web site" says Paul Allen, president of New Bedford Internet. "Instead of having to pay a webmaster for hourly maintenance services, a company or organization can use InCommand to edit their own sites - on their schedule and at affordbale prices."

Use of InCommand incurs a low ($19.95) monthly cost.

Downtown New Bedford, Inc. is a vital part of the success and future of New Bedford. New Bedford Internet is proud to have been given the opportunity to assist in the furtherance of their mission.
