Leaders of the Assn. of Internet Professionals’ Los Angeles chapter resigned en masse earlier this month and formed the Internet Professionals Network, or IPN. The new group’s organizational structure is more conducive to networking among various Internet professionals, including Web designers, marketers, Internet service providers, entertainers and lawyers, IPN President Don Baarns said.
