On Thursday, April 9th at 8:00 am, we kicked off the tenth Annual Day of Service at NTEN's NTC which was a resounding success! In 2007, we revamped the event so that volunteers no longer left the conference for the day and did two-hour strategy consults in the morning. We always managed.

The 2007 NTC Conference is around the corner, well in April, but some discount pricing deadlines coming right up. Even though for many years I've had a paying gig with NTEN to coordinate the Day of Service at the Nonprofit Technology Conference (NTC) -- it is THE conference to attend if you work with technology and nonprofits.

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.

It's fitting, then, that she's leading a session at the NTC about becoming a career nonprofit technologist. At the 2007 Nonprofit Technology Conference, Johanna and I were both missing our kids, and bonded over the fact that seeing "Goodnight Moon" in the hotel gift shop made us kind of weepy. .

Since we first used Twitter at the 2007 NTC in Washington DC, it has exploded into the public consciousness. Not only were the NTEN crew listening and letting the Omni staff know what you thought, it turns out the folks at Omni corporate were listening, as well. We're not making that up; I get that one all the time.

About a year ago, I did a lot of research on a screencast about widgets for nonprofits and put together two wikis - Nonprofit Widgets (for a session at 2007 NTC Conference) and Fundraising Widget. So, I was really interested in hearing what colleague Peter Deitz has to say in his recent NTEN Webinar on the Sprout Widget.
