Our board with "waynet.org" in Uptown Richmond has been erected at South A and 7th Streets.
Arrived!  Order for 500 Bic Roller-ball pens with WayNet, our phone number and our URL unscripted on them. 
Began running small 1" ad in the Pal-Item.  Will run 6 times in December.  Will evaluate and most likely continue in January.  Additionally, I plan on running a larger ad in the January Chamber Community Report.
Received invoice and copy of Symphony program in which we purchased a 1/4 page
advertisement.

Log Analysis for November and 3rd Quarter
Ran weekly and posted on the Members Only page.  Weekly averages for the past 4 weeks are 2,004 visitors and 7,654 hits, a tiny decrease in usage from the past month as people become accustomed to our new layout and get busy with the holidays.  Third quarter figures remained steady with the 2nd Quarter '99 figures   I expect a flattening in December, and then another jump as the cold, dark evenings of January descend upon us.  October figures reflect a 130% increase over the same time last year.
