Do you run a Web server, publish information, write programs, create graphics, design pages-or perhaps do it all-for an official Penn State Web site? If so, Web 2006 is for you.
This annual conference brings Penn State Web professionals together to share information and learn about innovative uses of the Web, applications for Web development, works in progress, security issues, and more.
