March Nashville Pulse Article Published
I have agreed to write a monthly article called “Nashville Pulse” for Digital Nashville, the free-to-join networking group dedicated to all things digital in the Music City. The idea is to survey what’s going on in Nashville every month in the digital world, and this month’s installment takes a look at how digital companies are pulling through the recession.
e-learning
This fall, more than 60 school districts across Tennessee, including Davidson-Nashville Metro, will receive $20,000 to serve home-bound students, supplant English Language Learner curriculum or even offer more Advanced Placement courses.
But few, if any, of those additional students will sit in traditional classrooms. Rather, they’ll be taking the courses online.

Hi Mr. Bigelow,
I recently got involved with Digital Nashville. I have just recently moved here from Chicago and am looking to receive advice and guidance as to what is required in this industry. I graduate with a degree in new media journalism and was hoping to get in contact with others that same the same career goals as I do. I am simply writing to introduce myself and see if there is any guidance you can offer me.
Thank you for your time,
Sarah Cechowski

Hey Sarah,
Thanks for dropping by.
I actually no longer live in Nashville, having recently relocated to Cincinnati, Ohio, but welcome to the Music City nonetheless!
I definitely recommend diving into Digital Nashville as a way to meet people. You also might check out Geek Breakfast, Barcamp, Podcamp or Nashville Startup Weekend, depending on what you’re into. Both Centresource and Firefly Logic host monthly casual meetups where you can mix and mingle with the interactive folks in town, if that’s your thing.
Have fun!
