    > This is my first posting to this list as I am a relative newcomer to the
    > academic world. My apologies right up front if this is not an appropriate
    > message for this forum. I've watched from the side lines and have been
    > fascinated by the human interaction and discussions. It's a real learning
    > tool for me.

    > I am an adjunct professor at Temple University where I teach an
    > Internet-based Organizational Staffing and a Strategic HR course at the
    > graduate and undergraduate levels. I am also involved in the Society for
    > Human Resource Management (SHRM) where I serve at the national level and
    as
    > local president of my Southern New Jersey, USA chapter.
    >
    > My interest is in the people-side of technology, namely high-tech/high
    > touch, work/life balance, privacy issues and getting people (especially HR
    > folks) to use it. In addition, I am interested in HR and Management
    > practices in the virtual workplace with issues such a long-distance
    > performance management, supervisor/subordinate virtual relationships, etc.
    > To further the people-friendly use of technology, I am putting together,
    for
    > lack of a better term, a technology symposium on February 3, 2000. The
    goal
    > is to create a forum for people to come and share ideas related to these
    > topics.
    >
    > I am looking for people who have ideas to share and who want to speak,
    > moderate or otherwise participate in this program. You can see more
    > information on our web site at www.tristatehr.org. I would appreciate
