So it's been a long road to this long blog post; I've had lots of good discussions about this year's Net2 program with lots of great folks, including my fine friends at CompuMentor.

How many tech conferences do you go to where you aren't allowed to use your laptop, text on your cell phone, or chat on an IRC channel during sessions? Where you are encouraged to truly listen and pay attention to what people are saying? Where a Waste Reduction Consultant is brought in to create a green event? Not many I bet.

Nonprofit Night - March 13 in SF

Leo Romero — Tue, 06 Feb 2007 20:29:15 -0500

Craigslist Foundation invites you to attend Nonprofit Night on March 13 at 111 Minna in San Francisco. The night's focus is on Nonprofit Capacity Building Through Skill Sharing. Many aspects of nonprofit operations, strategy and technology can be vexing if you don't have the right people to ask for guidance. This Nonprofit Night, facilitated by Allen Gunn, will allow participants to form small groups based on areas of need and interest, to compare challenges, share skills and experiences, and otherwise discover allies and resources. This peer-to-peer sharing model will allow each attendee to solicit input and ideas on a topic or challenge of his or her choice, drawing from the experience of other nonprofit leaders.
