just adding on to the previous... this idea keeps growing on me but i know i don't have time to implement it. what i'll try and do, though is to spec out what it would look like.
one of the other things that can be done (in addition to the actual 'hard' skills like web design an programming, networking) is research. many folks in our communities not only don't know, they don't know *how* to find out. folks ask me (cuz i'm technical) a lot of questions that have me shaking my head, but then i realize that its because they wouldn't know where else to get the info.
but for small businesses, community org's, etc., there should be a spot where they could find out some very basic information, and other stuff that requires research, but which is repeatable, such as:
* do i need to be on the web? -- what kind of presence do i need?
* how do i build a web page? -- how much should it cost? -- will a cookie cutter site work for me? -- do i need to pay for a site? -- will a 'free' site suffice? -- if i want to conduct business, how do i accept credit cards? -- do i need to link to search engines?
* what kind of computer do i need? -- do i need a pentium 4 (whatever that is)? -- what's the minimum system configuration that i can use?
that kind of stuff.
