The Group Jazz Meta Networking Award in honor of Frank Burns

Frank Burns was a pioneer in the field of online networking whose vision continues to influence our work. He founded The Meta Network in 1983 - now one of the oldest online communities in the world. Sadly, Frank died much too early in December, 2003. But his spirit lives on in the many MANY networks and network members he inspired and supported during the more than twenty years he served as a leader in our industry.

We have established the Meta Networking Award to honor Frank and to carry on the work he started in the way he taught us to do it. We hope that this award can play a small part in making the power of networking media available to people and organizations who might not otherwise be able to take advantage of it to leverage their goals.
