Give One, Get One: One Laptop Per Child.

Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

Tech and NGO T-Shirts for Cambodia

Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

Click To Play Whenever I've travel over to Cambodia, I have the opportunity to check two large suitcases up to 70 pounds each.

Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

But, I manage to optimize some photos from my arrival and last night's dinner with the Clogger Team. So, if you want to follow me - best to click through the flickr stream.

Reflections on the Meyer Memorial Trust Workshop

Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

I'm happy that my new laptop has an extended battery life so I am writing some reflections on the plane en route to Boston.
