There’s always great information in the newsletter, but this time around I’m particularly excited because the focus is social networking for non-profits (something that, if you read this blog regularly, you know I’m very passionate about) and the 2011 Social Networking Survey. How can I get the 2011 Social Networking Benchmark Report for Non-profits? The survey results will be compiled and presented at the 2011 Nonprofit Technology Conference in March.

You can't come to the 2011 Nonprofit Technology Conference ? Of course, not everybody who wants to attend the 2011 NTC is able, for one reason or another; we don't like it, but we do understand. That's why we've been working hard to extend the NTC beyond the confines of the event's hotel, to let you follow along without leaving your own desk. This year, we're able to offer an entire virtual conference, the Online NTC. >

The 2011 Nonprofit Technology Conference will sell out shortly. Fortunately, we have a great alternative: the Online NTC. There are only about 150 spots left, with 16 days to go -- and because of space limitations, this year's cap will be a hard one. So, if you've been putting off that registration, don't wait much longer. We hate to turn people away, but we won't have a choice this year.

Over the next 3 weeks, we're going to do our best to help you navigate the NTC so you have a rockin' time in DC. Community Day Community is definitely not new at the NTC; it's one of the main reasons people tell us they attend. What's new is how we frame the first day of the NTC.

That’s the questions I asked myself as I designed my panel for the NTEN’s annual conference, the NTC. As many trainers and teachers already know, people have different learning styles. Howard Gardner has dedicated his life work to this Theory of Multiple Intelligences. Yet, many conference panels are designed to accommodate only one or two styles of learning and go shallow instead of going deep.

We’ve modified it and created various versions, depending on whether it was to be played within one organization or with a group (like at the NTC), in just 45 minutes or over a longer period, and so on.

You can learn more at my session at the 2011 Nonprofit Technology Conference , " Small Org Doesn't Equal Small Tech ". Steve Heye, Web Project Manager, YMCA of Metropolitan Chicago Smaller nonprofits may feel like sophisticated technology is out of reach; it requires more budget, more staff, and more expertise than they think they have. That assumption is wrong. In fact, small nonprofits have many advantages over their larger counterparts.
