Welcome to the eWorkPlace Blog!

Welcome to the new eWorkPlace blog!

As our initiative launches, I am excited to create a space for the information and discussion on all things related to teleworking. Other parts of our website will list comprehensive telework benefits, or provide eWorkPlace free tools, answer any questions you may have, and much, much more.

This blog will be the place to visit to discuss everything from telework in the news, interesting methods around the world to make teleworking easier, discuss the impact of teleworking, and perhaps even follow an individual’s personal experience with teleworking.   

If you are interested in contributing as a blogger on any of these topics or have any topics you would like to see us cover, please do not hesitate to contact us at (insert email address here) or comment below. To make this a useful tool and a welcoming community, we certainly need your input.

In this first entry, I think it’ll be good to start simply and begin with a history lesson. But instead of lectures and notes, you can watch a YouTube video instead. Isn’t the internet great? Enjoy:

Well, welcome again and I look forward to hearing from you. I promise the next video will be more interesting. Through this blog and this initiative as a whole, we hope to transform the way Minnesota thinks about work!
