Join us for the San Francisco Net Tuesday on September 9:
Involver: How Nonprofits Can Create Video Campaigns for Social Networks.
My name is Alex Steed.
Somewhere around twice a week, I will (obviously) be tackling subjects relevant to Internet technology and your engagement with the nonprofit world. I will specifically focus on:
Hello to the Net Squared community blog readers!
I wanted to take a quick moment and re-introduce myself to everyone. I'm an nptecher that loves community. I think we have something special here at Net Squared and am excited to say that I'm now going to be a solid part of it! I'll be posting here twice a week, with insights, case studies, and how-tos that I come across to help you all as you continue to adopt and evaluate technology for nonprofits.
Hello Fellow NetSquaredians,
Looking forward to the conference to start tomorrow morning. Some of my interests include technology, sociology, volunteering and project management. I think I can work all of those into play tomorrow.
Everyone's introductions sound impressive and accomplished so I'm looking forward to meeting folks in person.
I'm not with any company or organization. I'll be a free agent.
I've been working on bringing web2.0 to the PreK-12 school community. My projects:

Looking forward to meeting like-minded people....should be a fun event!
I'm writing this while I sit in the passenger seat of a giant, white cargo van careening up the East Coast on route 15, so if I seem a bit distracted in tone, that's probably why. I could wait the four hours until I'm safely in the confines of my computer chair, but I don't want to lose the ideas while they're there. Well, that and I'm sort of melodramatic...
Welcome to San Jose! It's great to see so many innovators in one room with an interest in bringing new resources and new players together.
So what are we doing here? To connect, resource, share, learn, collaborate, brainstorm, challenge, encourage and vote!
For the next two days I will be blogging here at Cisco for the feedback focus sessions and will do my best to keep the conversations alive here on NetSquared.
Daniel's at the podium now setting the stage for the event, asking us all to keep brevity at a premium as we seek to go through 21 great projects in a matter of hours. The hat person chooses Nabuur first as the projects begin their five minute introduction to present their work to the community.
Best wishes to all of the presenting innovation networks!
I'll be getting up veeery early tomorrow morning to head west for the second annual NetSquared conference-thingy. Last year's event had a profound effect on me. It's where I first started using Second Life , and it's where I had the opportunity to deepen my relationship with the brilliant Micah Sifry which led to my eventual involvement in techPresident and the Personal Democracy Forum.
Hey folks! I'm really looking forward to the N2Y2 event. I wasn't able to attend last year though I did participate in an online chat on behalf of Participant Productions during the event. So I'm really excited to be there in person this time around. The featured projects all look really interesting and I can't wait to hear more about them and offer my assistance in some way.
OK so a bit about me... I'm a social media and online community consultant. I'm working primarily with media companies, tech companies and nonprofits to incorporate Web 2.0 technologies and ideals into effective and sustainable business models.
Greetings Net2Y2!!!
I am thrilled to be participating in this year's event. I heard that I'm going to be a "session monitor". I believe it involves clock watching and scurrying people from one room to another. In the true nature of my name ... if you need help, just ask, I'm Handy.
For the last few years, I was at TechSoup as a Project Manager. I love TS and all the work you do!!! I am so excited to see everyone again.
As of May 1st, I began working at http://www.YouthNOISE.org as Executive Web Producer. I am LOVING new my role here at YN. We have some really exciting Programs in development that we'll be launching *right* before the Conference into Beta ... so, I'm looking forward to evangelizing the feature set and getting your feedback.
