Enterprise and economic development resources are those things useful and available to serve, support or assist a target audience. A network of three websites serve members as a resource for the combined processes of enterprise development and economic development as well as site selection. One of three websites of The Network is Site Location Assistance.com.

Another website is Economic Development.net. To show how three websites work together take a look at the EDN Area Development Section and that it is a site selection resource.

The third website is Find Me Here.com, appropriately named because it houses a directory of resource and service suppliers. The directory is a search resource created from the Global Registry of Contacts database. The database is use to deliver on the search promise of The Network. The FMH website also houses an enterprise and economic development library.

Resource pages are scattered throughout the websites. The Network is a resource archive.

definition of resource page:

... Essentially, an online document consisting of HTML (HTM) with its name followed by a filename extension. It may be referred to as a file or a page but, in either case, has its own unique name as collection of data or information within a Website. The uniqueness of a page name within a website is controlled by the URL address string. For example default URL for the Find Me Here website of The Network is http://www.findmehere.com. The URL as shown takes you to a page named default, i.e., http://www.findmehere.com/default.htm.

The FMH default entry is a page with resources for learning about The Network and navigating to other websites as well as within Find Me Here. If you change the page name and its extension from default to about you create a URL address string that takes you to a specific file area within the FMH website. The file area has a default.htm. All you need to use of the string, however, is http://www.findmehere.com/about/. Adding the page name, glossary.htm, after about (http://www.findmehere.com/about/glossary.htm) avoids the default entry to that specific area of the website.

Having walked you through a demonstration of how pages fit within URLs it should be pointed out that The Network uses file folder graphics to represent its websites. Also, it should be pointed out that webpages with resources suggested or contributed or commented on by users, most of which are available for sponsorships, show three linked graphics (about this page, search results, search promise). These resource pages are housed in an archive which is not ... just for safekeeping. The archive is organized for you to search with the intent of finding something to serve, support or assist with your endeavor as a member of the .network target audience. Searches are backed by a promise; therefore, you should never be stymied at a dead end or problem, such as a broken link ...

We (who we are ) are looking for comments and critiques, as well.

Maintaining copies of newsletters published between 2001 to 2006 started this archive. Events of September 11, 2001 affected changes in The Network for the next five years. Newsletters reported changes. After 2006, however, publishing a newsletters online was no longer necessary ... blogs had replaced many of them by that time. The idea of keeping copies of the newsletter archive was shelved. However, information about useful resources and links reported in them were retained. The resource archive replaced the one for old newsletters.
