Stornoway Workshops

Continuing our travels with the E-Tourism workshops, we recently conducted one in Stornoway. The course was keenly attended and (we believe) well received.

This seminar illustrates how keenly the internet has been adopted by the remoter Scottish locations. Which I guess is no suprise, as it these very locations which have the opportunity to benefit most from the technology.

The connection was amazingly quick, considering there were 10 laptops running off the wireless. Thanks to the effort and ingenuity of Connected Communities, who managed to create their own DSL system on the island. Necessity is not only the mother of invention but also of improvement.

All delegates showed a particular aptitude and knowledge of web issues, which hopefully we helped them to enhance.

I'm only sorry I didn't get to spend more time to explore during my first foray to the Outer Hebrides.

And thanks for the comment Helen, I hope you enjoy blogging.
