Zen and the Art of Nonprofit Technology

I was perusing Social Source Commons (something I don’t do nearly often enough,) and catching up on the SSC blog , and I thought it might be worth sharing with this audience what tools I use for basic consulting workflow. It’s not so up to date, and it’s a list more of tools I have used, and some I still use.).

Not everyone I work with has moved away from Word/Excel -- so I'm finding myself with one foot in the web-based collaboration tools and the other foot stuck in Microsoft Office. So, I can easily respect other people's tool preferences as long as I don't get too annoyed. You can easilyl collaborate with spreadsheets and docs.

I looked over Allan Benamer’s post on the Convio and Kintera initiatives, I looked harder at the Convio Open and Kintera Connect docs, and I also had a chat with some Kintera folk. I have a few comments. Allan is right – the Kintera API is more comprehensive, and provides for more flexibility than the Convio API.

At first blush, although Kintera officially got out the door first, announcing Connect weeks ago, and delivering the APIs and docs on Friday, their play is a good start, but Convio, announcing Open tomorrow, appears to be ahead in terms of providing real openness. gods: Flickr, RSS, Google, etc. apps out there.

And yeah after reading the docs, I agree, it’s bad. Speaking of the responses of the old guard, eTapestry, which was bought by Blackbaud last year, is opening up it’s API this week. Allan, in his inimitable way, points out how bad the API is. So is it good news, when companies open APIs that don’t make it easy to really use?

What you should do Make an assessment – will using this online tool really save money or time, or facilitate collaboration in ways that is not possible with local apps? And, further, efforts like Adobe AIR, and Microsoft Silverlight , are bringing full-fledged desktop application functionality to applications in the cloud.
