We closed Day Two with the Stylex and Designer Pages Panel: Tips and Tools for Online Specification. It was one of the most informative programs we saw at NeoCon this year. The hour informed the media, designers and manufacturers on how to make product information easily accessible online for the trade. They discussed how designers want to find product and what manufacturers could and should do to make it easy. Key topics included design resource Web sites, targeted and defined social networking sites, and online libraries and wikis. It was exciting to hear how many more professionals are using Facebook and Twitter to see what their peers and colleagues are sourcing and specifying.
