<p>One of the many ways in which Johnson College and BlackOut Design have been working together is to increase awareness of the wonderful opportunities available at Johnson College.  Our latest project has been to design and implement billboard advertising for their Open House campaign.</p>
<p>Johnson College offers education for various careers in technology, health services and business fields.  They have focused on 13 degree programs in order to provide personalized instruction so that their students will graduate with the skills needed for specialized employment, career advancement and life-long learning.</p>
<p>BlackOut Design has been thoroughly enjoying the opportunity to better spread the word about such a dynamic institution with strong competitive advantage and client satisfaction.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>BlackOut Design, Inc. President Jack Reager was quoted in a <a title="Advantages of blogs" href="http://thetimes-tribune.com/articles/2008/10/19/business/sc_times_trib.20081019.h.pg1.tt19blogs_s1.1923969_bus.txt" target="_blank"><em>Sunday Times</em> article </a>dealing with the growing popularity of corporate blogs as a powerful new tool for communicating with customers.</p>
<p>Featured in the &#8220;Northeastern Pennsylvania Business Weekly&#8221; section, the article cites Reager along with other Northeastern Pennsylvania business leaders, discussing how blogs have replaced traditional PR methods and can open up a mutually beneficial dialog between a business and its customers.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Years ago, it was get a press release out, make sure you&#8217;re in the paper, make sure you&#8217;re in the TV news. Now, with technology, you can get your message out there and control it,&#8221; Reager is quoted as saying.</p></blockquote>
<p>At BlackOut, we not only maintain our own corporate blog; we design, build and manage blogs for our clients.

<p><a title="InnoCentive" href="http://www.innocentive.com" target="_blank">InnoCentive</a> is a web-based marketplace where &#8220;Seeker&#8221; clients post technical problems or &#8220;Challenges&#8221; when trying to develop new ideas or solutions to grow or start a business.Registered &#8220;Solvers&#8221; from around the world will then help solve the problem.</p>
<p>Companies are currently being invited, as part of the InnoCentive Challenge, to fill out an <a href="http://www.blackout20.com/images/innocentive-challenge.doc" target="_self">entry application</a> describing the major challenge faced by their business. If your challenge is chosen by the NEPA Alliance ACTION Selection Committee, you will be notified to submit your free Electronic Request for Partnership (ERFP) posting worth $15,000 on the InnoCentive website.</p>
<p>The alliance and its partners will help create a YouTube video to alert a worldwide network of &#8220;Solvers&#8221; that a new technology challenge posting has been added. This will generate proposals from potential worldwide solvers that can offer you a pre-defined solution.</p>
<p>Applications must be submitted by September 30, 2008, to:<br />
