Yi-Tan Community hosts a weekly 40-minute conference call about navigating change in technology and society. Jerry Michalski is the moderator. I used to participate in the calls way back in 2005 in the early days of blogging and always found the calls informative. Yesterday’s Yi-Tan call with Jerry Michalski was about Google +.

Through a strange twist of fate, I connected again with Kalabird one of the first ex-pat bloggers from Cambodia that I discovered in 2005 because of her amazing photographs in flickr. You are working in technology for a nonprofit, what did you did study in school? How did you end up in Cambodia?

This past year took me to London to teach nonprofit leaders at workshops on digital strategy hosted by LinkedIn and Social Misfits, and to Cambodia to teach a series of workshops for Women’s Rights NGOs hosted by Wake International. When I look back on 2016, it was a very rich and productive year. And, I expect no less in 2017.

Whether I'm fundraising for Cambodia or Creative Commons , I involve my kids. We have dinner table discussions on why it is important to support causes, particularly programs in Cambodia like the Sharing Foundation.

Almost ten years ago, she founded a nonprofit organization, The Sharing Foundation , dedicated to meeting the physical, emotional, educational, and medical needs of orphaned and seriously- disadvantaged children in Cambodia.

But when I realized it would take a long time before a small NGO working in a country, like say, Cambodia, might be able to purchase a small number of them (less than 100) to outfit a school, I was disappointed. Virginia Debolt who covers the technology beat at BlogHer has a great roundup of the reactions. Tharum was disappointed too.

I have two favorites: The Sharing Foundation which supports children in Cambodia and Creative Commons. Peace Fellows are graduate students who work with Advocacy Project 's community based human rights partners around the world. E-waste and access to technology to those who could not otherwise afford it. Can I Sit With You?

What does technology in action look like? In September, we asked nonprofits and libraries to show us exactly how technology activates their organization and helps fulfill their mission. Each entry was more compelling than the next, showing us that nonprofits are putting technology in action in incredibly different ways.

How many people can use Internet in Cambodia? ITC is the new knowledge in Cambodia. Cambodia does not have computers made in the country so we have to import. But now the government of Cambodia, also cares that people learn how to use computers and ICT. Before computer use was only in the US offices in Cambodia.

Tharum started his blog in June 2004 while a student at the National University of Management and working for the Open Forum for Cambodia , a Cambodian NGO devoted to digital divide issues. I hope to get back to Cambodia and meet him face-to-face someday soon. Do you think blogging will really take off in Cambodia?
