From everyone here at Hypertherm Cutting Institute, welcome to our new site! We’ve added new features like these:

• Forum - Finally, a place to talk about cutting metal. We've set up the framework for discussions on your projects, your equipment, and your business - where the conversation goes from there is up to you! As an added bonus, Hypertherm experts like Jim Colt will be dropping in to offer advice and answer questions from time to time, too.
• My Hypertherm Voice - If you've ever started a sentence with "I wish that Hypertherm would ___________", then this is the page for you. We're looking for your input on how to improve everything from products and services to corporate and environmental responsibility. My Hypertherm Voice is much more than a suggestion box; you can think of it more like an active brainstorming session. We don't just want your ideas, we also want you to weigh in on the ideas of others. Remember, no idea is too big or too small!
• Blog - Frequent contributions from a wide range of industry sources will make this section of the site a great place to add to your Favorites. As a registered user, you can also participate in polls and comment on blog entries.
• Enhanced training content - Our collection of high definition videos stream faster than ever. Add even more interactive e-learning courses and valuable print-outs to the mix, and it's easy to see why our training materials are getting a lot of industry attention!

As a site administrator, it is my job to be a resource for you. I want to make sure that Hypertherm Cutting Institute is an effective social and training tool. Once you've given the new site a test drive, come back and tell me what you think in the comments section!
