    The Web 2.0 workshop was for me, in a word, priceless. You've opened my eyes to a world where I can truly inform, entertain and amaze our readers. From the ease of converting Google docs into graphics to interactive mapping, the change in our site for our readers is going to be tremendous. You've changed my life. To say that I am inspired to go back into my newsroom and "create" is an understatement. But I don't just want to "create"... I want to change. I want to help our organization evolve. I've now seen the potential and the applications for what can be done are now limitless. I cannot thank all of you enough.
