| A New Concept in Test Information Exchange |
In April 2003 we launched a revised version of The BestTest Directory. As before, it offered a forum for displaying test vendor and test product information. We added other directories for test publications, test events, test definitions and others, but that was not the major change. The new concept was to allow any registered visitor to add test information. Now, almost eight months into this new approach, we still have not convinced everyone that it is indeed possible for any of you to post test related information at
www.BestTest.com. Moreover, the BestTest Newsletter was re-launched about four months ago, appearing twice each month. Postings at the web site, such as press releases, announcements, test related articles or courses, will appear in the next BestTest Newsletter.
Readers are concerned about the posting process, worrying that if they can post anything, their company could be bombarded by negative comments. To avoid this we built into the process a screening mechanism that reduces the possibility of informational sabotage. First, all entries require our approval before they are posted. Second, as we approve a listing, an email is sent to a Test Vendor Contact at the company who has the opportunity to object to any of the listings. If we receive such an objection, the listing will be purged. During the past eight months, I am happy to report that we only received one objection form a Test Vendor Contact. This is because the approval process filters out obvious improprieties and because our visitors are responsible individuals. So as this information exchange is a FREE community forum, why not use it to communicate test information with the rest of our industry?
In this issue, we feature measurement equipment. Due to the holidays, we have not introduce a guest editor on this subject. The next issue will deal with PXI instrumentation and we will resume our guest editorials.
We hope 2004 will be a good year for all of us in the test industry and we urge you to utilize this forum for educating the industry, while you take advantage of the information made available at
www.BestTest.com.
