Meeting Update
Wednesday, March 19, 2008
At approximately, 11:45 a.m., George Sistrunk called Madame Chair to inform her that all the Bayne Street Blogs were complete.
During the conversation it was discussed and agreed that all the social and business networking sites Madame Chair had investigated would be added to one of the blog pages under "Online Social Networks Of Interest". Some of these online networks are of particular interest because they may fall within Bayne Street's guidelines.
It was also agreed to emphasize the need to have a printer connected to the computer during our telephone conversations with project inquiries. Since many Dell laptop computers need special adapters, this is important, because the coupon service requires participants to download and print their own grocery coupons.
In an earlier meeting, Edward C. Grahman and Otis Harrison stated this issue of complete computer systems, availability and access to and/or ownership of complete computer systems with the correct software package is essential to Bayne Street's growth.
Since Orangeburg does not have that many people that are computer literate, it will be necessary to develop a program concept that will effectively address this issue; not only in Orangeburg, but in other communities as well.
Since the vast majority of people coming into Bayne Street will not need sophisticated computer systems, George Sistrunk recommended going to Orangeburg Business Machines to examine their available inventory of pre-owned systems with at least 900 Megahertz clock speed, a 10 Gigabyte hard drive and Internet ready.
However, the Committee is aware that even their available inventory might not be enough to meet our needs. Since OBM builds all Independent Marketing Group's computer systems, they would be a good place to start. During the interim, other avenues will be explored.
