Connect and discuss on CONNECT
O
n occasion, I get feedback from readers about the magazine's stories-
discussions that would be at home on a Letters to the Editor page, if
we still had one. Although, when you think about it, we do kind of
have one-it's just in a digital format with no wait to see replies:
the CONNECT discussion forum at connect.textiles.org.
You may have noticed the QR code in the Product Trends story in
September's Specialty Fabrics Review about networking with architects.
Scanning the code takes you directly to a CONNECT thread where
people can post their experiences and advice for others.
In this issue, the QR-coded discussion topic is
on artificial intelligence (AI; see page 39). We first
wrote about using generative AI in your business in
March, so it'll be interesting to hear from people who
have tried it out since then and those who have made
further inroads as well as their advice to others.
But I don't have to tell you about the power of

what you're loving in this
issue and what you'd like
to see more of.

making connections. One thing I hear time and
again from our members is about businesses helping
each other out, and that doesn't happen in a vacuum.
ATA is here to facilitate those connections through
our online membership directory, VISTA platform
and annual print buyer's guide-and it happens all
the time on CONNECT.
Having an active forum will come in handy for
us editors as we assign our 2025 stories starting this
fall. (See the editorial calendar in our media kit at
textiles.org/advertising.) We heard your requests for
more business advice stories, so we'll need you to
comment on company volunteer programs, leadership
development programs, employee retention, student
mentorships, how to work in international partnerships and more.
But you don't have to check the forum every day to see what's new
(who has time for that?); in your account settings, you can turn on a
daily or weekly notification email encapsulating the newest discussions
with links that will take you directly to them, for easy participation. If
you haven't gone on CONNECT in a while, the new board has a cleaner,
streamlined look and is more skimmable and searchable than before.
Check it out and join the conversations!
