I’ve followed and supported the work of Peter Deitz and Social Actions ever since hearing about his passion and ideas a few years ago. Let’s start at the beginning: What is Social Actions and where does the API come in? The Social Actions project began in 2006. They were talking about API’s. That’s today.

The winners will be anounced at the 2009 Nonprofit Technology Conference.

Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

At the end of that panel, we all hoped there would be a larger nonprofit presence on the agenda for this 2009. And yes, indeed, in 2009 there were many more panel proposals.
