That’s the questions I asked myself as I designed my panel for the NTEN’s annual conference, the NTC. You need to engage the whole brain in learning. Our panel included Free Agents Mark Horvath and Shawn Ahmed, along with reps from Red Cross, Save the Children, and Common Ground Communities.

Michael was an active member of the NTEN community, NTC speaker, colleague, friend, and an all-around great person to know. I only met him in person twice, both times at NTC, and wish I''d had the opportunity to know him better. He was an understated quiet man with a keen intellect and fine sense of humor.

I look forward to the NTEN NTC (Nonprofit Technology Network's conference) every year. This is actually my first time officially speaking at NTC. Numbers-wise, the NTC is no Dreamforce. A significant number of the NTC sessions are focused on strategy and constituent-facing technology applications. I love it.

My first impression was that both NTC and Convio have come a long way as the room was packed. Shana Masterson from the National Brain Tumor Society was the moderator and led the large session by breaking the group up for open dialogue.

The idea of reciprocity is important -- I also didn't want to ask too many people that I hadn't already given a few pro bono minutes of my brain time in the past -- answering a friendly email request or whatever.
