In the Clouds
After several years on our previous content management system, the Monroe Balloon Rally website has now been re-launched on the Webcentric CMS platform and is exploding with content. The site is now hosted in our cloud environment (which somehow seems totally appropriate) and has numerous new features for event goers, organizers, participants and volunteers.
This site is a good example of a content management system supporting the dynamic activities of a yearly event of this magnitude. You can check out the site yourself at http://www.monroeballoonrally.com but, better yet, why not plan a trip to Monroe, Wisconsin this summer and take it all in first hand? Of course, because of the social media integration, you can follow the event in real-time from your couch if you like. Of course, you'll miss out on all the great food and music though. What can we say, social media isn't everything, yet.
