I have to admit, the further I get from my high school and college years, the more technologically incompetent I feel. I remember using card catalogs in the library, hand writing letters to my friends and turning to my handy World Book Encyclopedia for research. Now, all that can be done with ease online.

The Internet has forced a fast-paced world to move at lightning speed and with the click of a button, one can be connected to a colleague or friend across the globe. In the business world, the Internet has provided opportunities to reach countless customers, advertise products and now, connect with other experts in their industry.

It is my experience that members of the jan/san industry are rife with knowledge and other industry members would benefit from the allocation of such information. That said, we are pleased to introduce myCleanLink, a social networking site specific to the cleaning industry and specific to you.

By logging on, you can create your own individual profile page and then interact with other in-house service providers, as well as jan/san distributors, building service contractors, manufacturers, cleaning editors and industry consultants.

You have the opportunity to speak your mind by blogging about issues that matter to you, posing questions to the industry through the forum or joining groups specific to topics that interest you.

Whatever your intentions are, I encourage you to sign up today at www.myCleanLink.com.
