The Basics of Online Event Planning

PLANNING

You can’t do it all ... at least not alone. Use e-mail and online meeting spaces to put the plans for your event together. Sites such as http://www.topica.com, http://www.egroups.com and http://www.yahoo.com all allow you to set up a mailing list for FREE. It takes only a few minutes: All the members of your event committee can register to receive and send e-mails via one central address. Members also have the choice of receiving e-mails one by one or as a “digest” at the end of the day. This can allow busy committee members to help out with planning from wherever they choose.
