There are some fabulous sessions proposed for the 2009 NTC , running the whole gamut of nonprofit technology, from planning to Web 2.0, That’s an interesting model, and, if the software is decent, sounds like it could be a good option for some organizations. But, of course, as with anything, look (a lot) before you leap.

This post gives me the chance to finally write the very belated post on MPower I’ve been meaning to write since I got back from NTC. I had a great sit-down with Randy McCabe , CEO and Leo D’Angelo (CTO) of MPower at NTC. MPower is not a new product. It’s been around for quite a while, and has a solid user base.

April 15, 2007 At NTC , there was a lot of talk about the “big three&# open source CMS packages that most people these days in our sector are using: Drupal , Plone , and Joomla. I hadn’t had experience with either Plone or Joomla, but in talking to folks both at NTC and Penguin Day about Joomla, I got intrigued.

But why not add another channel to the back channel happenings, for instance, at NTC ? IRC has always seemed to me to be one of the best ways to do that, but IRC is, well, passé these days, it seems. Sounds like a reasonable idea. But why don’t I sign up for a Twitter account, and, well, Twitter?

As I wrote this post on the flight back from my third NTEN Conference I know I felt similar to many of the other 1,600 “NPTechies” (Nonprofit Techies) who are leaving San Francisco. So, allow me this chance to glow in the softer side of nonprofit technology and share some of my favorite moments of the 2009 NTEN Conference.

I ran into an old colleague at NTC , and it came up, because he had been thinking of contributing to the journal, but decided that he probably won’t, for reasons I will talk about. Although the Journal was prepared in partnership with NTEN, I take full and personal responsibility for the decision to use a closed license.

For the social media library giveaway I asked folks to leave a comment on how they would use the books to shape their 2010 social media strategy. For 2010, they want to build relationships with past volunteers, youth clients, family members, donors, and other supporters. Erin even wrote a little poetry as part of her entry.
