Wausau Paper
Wausau Paper’s new Digital Space Web site has arrived. Much more than a standard product site, Digital Space is an online community by and for designers, printers and other thought leaders engaged in digital print.
Digital Space takes a fun, informative and easy-to-use approach to facilitating dialogue within the digital print industry. You can follow blogs, post comments or questions, suggest future blog topics, and even post videos and photos of your latest projects produced on digital print media.
It’s about time printers, designers and thought leaders from the digital print market were given access to an online community to connect and share with one another in real-time! The constant evolution of digital printing necessitates an online atmosphere that is conducive to the lifestyle and needs of a digital print user. There is so much to share and learn.
“The fundamental goals of creating Digital Space have to do with our desire to promote learning – we want to help people collaboratively solve problems and inspire each other,” says Andrea Alstad for Wausau Paper. “Guests to the site are encouraged to create a profile for themselves so their contributions to the community are recognized as their own. This social-media like aspect of the site allows users to be more than just visitors – it fosters relationship building and learning within the industry and creates opportunities for people to get their names out there and be known.”
You can visit the Digital Space Web site and advance learning by offering advice, input and opinions on digital design and printing – read the blogs and share your thoughts or even start a blog of your own.
The home page features regular blogs from industry thought leaders including Mark Potter of Canvas Magazine and award-winning graphic designer Leslie Tane, as well as insights from Wausau Paper’s digital team.
Industry analyst, Heidi Tolliver-Nigro, focuses on green issues. She’ll discuss ways to spend less on marketing and will recount the fun she had playing with Wausau Paper’s online environmental calculator.
Kirk Frisinger, technical services manager at Wausau Paper offers great advice on how to prevent something that we have all experienced … the curl. He’ll tell us why it happens and how to stop it from affecting your digital substrates once and for all.
Additionally, the Digital Studio allows designers, printers and other digital print enthusiasts to post video and photos of their latest digital print media work. All printers, designers and thought leaders within the digital print market are encouraged to join the Digital Space community today.
