got geoint?

Welcome to the Friday’s Food for Though post from got geoint? This past week, we ran two USGIF member-related posts on got geoint? First we did a podcast with Mladen Stojic, Senior Vice President, Product Management and Marketing of ERDAS, then we followed it up with a Member Profile of The SI Organization. Clearly this week was all about promoting foundation members and it made us think that the perfect theme for this week’s FFFT post is all about why we form member-driven organizations and groups — and the benefits we derive from this. So, break out your old Members Only jackets (pictured) and read on. Oh, and if you want to help shape the future of the community, you should consider becoming a sponsor of the YPG GeoHunt at GEOINT 2011. Happy Friday!
