Something To Talk About

DATI now has a discussion board on its website. For those of you who may be new to the world of online discussion boards, a discussion board is a place where you can post questions and messages, and respond to questions and messages left by others. It's also a place to share information for the greater benefit of the community. Suppose you have a question on just how you go about getting a wheelchair for your mother-in-law who lives with you or about how to get a hearing aid. You can post those questions on the message board, and someone from DATI will try to answer your question. However, someone else may know the answer, and that person can chime in with her experience as well. That is the power of the discussion board–it's dynamic and growing. The answers stay on the board so that if folks have the same question some time later, they can find the answer on the board. Also, if someone wants to update information on a topic for everyone, it can be done right on the discussion board.

Besides being another place to get info from DATI, the discussion board is a place where you all can interact as an online community and help each other out. It gives us a chance to tap in to the knowledge that all of you have and share it with the group.

To begin, just sign in on the DATI website and select "Discussion Board" from the list of available options. You do have to be a registered user in order to post comments and participate, but you don't have to be registered in order to read the postings. So what are you waiting for? Log on and see what's going on!
