Announcing gotUC.net and a new contest
If you have listened to Brandon's last Podcast then you should know that I have registered gotUC.net as a domain name. I will be standing up gotUC as a sister site to GotSpeech. There is so much going on in the area of Unified Communications that I thought it was time for an online user community built around the UC platform.
gotUC will be modeled after GotSpeech and will contain articles, downloads and forums for each of the platforms that make Unified Communications possible. You will be able to post your questions in forums that are dedicated to the area that interests you (Unified Messaging, Office Communications Server 2007 etc).
My goal is to make GotUC into the same vibrant user community that GotSpeech has grown into. I plan to stand things up to coincide with the OCS launch though I may bring it on line sooner.
Now for the contest - I know how to stand up and grow a user community but I'm not the artistic type. I need a logo for the new site that reflects it's name and mission. I'm no good at logo design (Brandon did the one for GotSpeech) and that is where the contest comes in. You design the logo and the winner gets a prize. See how simple that is?
This is your chance to exercise your design skills and come up with the new logo for gotUC.net and win the laptop case shown below. Be the envy of all of your friends as you carry your laptop around in this beautiful Office communications Server 2007 bag. Show the world your pride in OCS!
You can email me the logos at marshall@gotspeech.net or you can upload them to the files section.
I'm also looking for individuals who are interested in stepping up and getting involved in this new community. I would love to have separate administrators for each of the different forums. So if you have expertise and a willingness to get involved then email me.
