It’s hard to believe that the 2012 NTC is a wrap. As Holly wrote in the #NTCFail blog post outlining the things that didn’t go as planned at the event, we value being open and accountable at NTEN. But we also want to share the things that were awesome, the pieces of the NTC that we feel pretty good about at the end of the day.

Edward Harran is a blogger and nonprofit technologist I have connected with through NetSquared, this blog, and of course Twitter. He and I have had terrific idea swaps and brainstorms and I can only imagine the conversations he will spark in person at NTEN’s Nonprofit Technology Conference. When is the NTEN Conference?

We also offered workshops back at the conference location to handle the overflow demand. I remember always being stressed out about whether or not we'd have enough volunteers. We always managed.
