PIGEON WEBSITES.

[Guest TAMMY_1]

WHAT DO MEMBERS OF THE SHU THINK ABOUT THE FACT THAT THE SHU SPENT THOUSANDS OF POUNDS [ A LOT ] ON COMPUTERS A FEW YEARS AGO AND THEY STILL HAVE NOT GOT A WEBSITE WHERE AT A TIME LIKE THIS ALL INFORMATION WOULD BE DISPLAYED TO EVERYONE WHO HAS ACCESS TO A COMPUTER AND THOSE THAT DONT WOULD SURELY BE TOLD BY SOMEONE THAT HAS.AS I SAID IN AN EARLIER POST THE SHU ASKS ALL SECRETARIES TO SEND THEM MEMBERS E-MAIL ADDRESSES YET I DONT KNOW OF ANYBODY RECIEVING AN E-MAIL TELLING THEM ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON.

I AGREE THEY SHOULD BE ONLINE, BUT AS U SAID THEY SPENT MONEY ON COMPUTERS, YES THEY GOT A TELLING OFF FOR DOING SO, SO MAYBE THIS IS WHY THEY ARE NOT SPENDING ANYMORE, IT DOES COST MONEY TO RUN WEB-SITES, BUT AS SAID BEFORE GET ON TO UR SHU COUNCILORS IF U WANT THEM ON-LINE, THEY ARE THE ONES WITH THE AUTHORITY NOT THE OFFICE STAFF.

I think its quite important for all organisations to get online, at very least they give a better service via being able to email them. Slightly more time and effort they can provide a good deal of information to members, and give details to recuiting new members. Fifer if you want some idea of the costs to forward to the SHU just let me know. I think they may be pleasantly surprised

CHEERS MEALYBAR,I HAVE FOR A LONG TIME SAID THE SHU SHOULD BE ONLINE, JUST TAKE TRYING TO GET THEM ON THE PHONE IT'S NOT EASY, YES I AM 100% FOR THAT, I WILL MAKE ENQUIRIES, I WILL HAVE A CHAT WITH THE SHU FIFE DELEGATES ON MONDAY TO SEE IF THEY CAN GET ON ABOUT IT, I WAS JUST SPEAKING TO LINDA BROOKES TODAY, WILL BRING IT UP.

The cost in the SHU website would be negligible. We had to buy our domain name and purchase Microsoft front Page to do the set up, Steve did it himself and he's no puter geek.  It costs us about 12 quid a month for our ISP to host it.
