Using Red Hat, as I often do sometimes, feels like doing battle in comparison. Ubuntu seems to be becoming the linux distro of choice for a lot of people, and so far, it’s my favorite. Ubuntu took the best that Debian had to offer, and left the weaknesses behind, I think. Anyway, I think it’s worth checking out.

Making apples-to-apples comparisons of these systems was one of the most difficult analytical tasks I’ve taken on in a while (and, actually much of the heavy lifting of designing the analysis was done by Laura Quinn), and until you attempt such a thing, please be somewhat tempered in your complaints about it. Now the security issue.

Convio’s APIs and Extensions are free, but the Database connectors have consulting costs associated with them, and that makes sense to me. The Kintera API looks, quite honestly, seriously wimpy in comparison to either Convio or Salesforce. Extensions also include the pantheon of Web 2.0 gods: Flickr, RSS, Google, etc.

My point is that companies like Microsoft have almost nothing to do with providing good software — the marginal gain from selling better software is miniscule in comparison with the potential income from spreading some FUD and reaping the benefits as everyone re-evaluates their risk positions. 2 Michelle Murrain 06.03.07

I hate to be so blunt, but it is true, at least in comparison to the ones on the Mac. I used to have this great system where I used the Mac Addressbook, which would nicely sync with my cell phone. It also integrated well with Mail.app and iChat. It was great. First problem: Linux address books … suck. There are basically three options.

This sparked a lively debate among strategists and consultants at Blackbaud, both agreeing and disagreeing with some of the post’s comments. We agree the emphasis should be on donor behavior, that non-profits should cater to their donors and what works for them, not some plan that is convenient for us. see: Giving Tuesday).

It is important to think about the fact that dollars raised by nonprofit organizations are going to Blackbaud’s investors whose major interest in Blackbaud is the profit it can produce.

Most custom CMS that I’ve seen lately are sorely lacking in features and/or usability, in comparison to what’s out there, and available. The other 15% might want or need a more specialized CMS (like OpenACS, or a proprietary one,) or might need some modules developed for them.
