Hot off the Press: August Boerne Business Monthly

Ben Schooley is doing a great job with his Boerne Business Monthly, the second edition of which came out today. Be sure and check out my article on page 20, or read it here.

New Boerne Publication

Boerne Today is a new web publication aiming to corner a good piece of local and tourist eyeshare. Digett has been working on this concept for well over a year, and finally launched a first iteration with minimal content and functionality at the beginning of this month. Word has it that this month a community calendar will make its debut, and September will see a full-fledged business directory. The search is also out for a full-time staffer.

Career Moves

Congratulations to Hector Carrillo, who accepted a position at the Web Head Group in San Antonio.

Boerne Web Design - A Primer

The web marketing industry in Texas is flourishing. With the exception of the West Coast, few areas are more active than Austin, just up the road from Boerne. San Antonio, however, has lagged, with only a few notable firms making much of a wave. Crawl a few miles northwest on I-10 to Boerne and you might expect to find very little in the way of recognized web firms. With one exception you'd be right there, too. But as the Boerne area population explodes, so will competition in the web design industry. I'll chronicle the industry as seen through the eyes of an industry veteran.
