For a while now, those of us who have been a part of the Indy Hall have been in on a little secret; Independence Hall attracts the best and the brightest of the blogging/web-dev/interactive community. Well, somebody blabbed. The secret is out and a major Application Service Provider (ASP) wants in.
Aesoponline.com is an ASP “that automates the process of filling schedule openings, including instances when a replacement of an essential person is required due to an absence” or basically a sub manager for huge school districts around the world.
Here’s where we come in: Aesoponline.com has over 5 million hits a month from 250,000 unique users who hit their login page, a number which is expected to triple by October. Theres a lot of opportunity to harness that traffic, and one idea to monetize this traffic they are creating an online publication for K-12 Educators, essentially a lifestyle site for teachers, substitutes, and school administrators. The problem is they don’t know on-line publications, they don’t know how to create a community, they think ‘blog’ is a dirty word. In short, they desperately need our insight and advice.
On Friday August 17th at 7pm, our new Independents Hall home will transform into a technology Think Tank.
Pizza and drinks will fuel a Brain Storm the likes of which has never been seen in Philly since the deceleration of Independence. Please let us know if you plan on coming so we know how much Pizza to buy, email david.speers@gmail.com
Afterwards we’ll all make the pilgrimage to National Mechanics ($2 Lagers) to celebrate our the First Week in our new home.
