Hi everyone!

I'm new on NetSquared and thought it might be a good idea to use this first post to introduce the work we're doing at UnLtdWorld around free, open and accessible data, hoping that many members of this community will find this of interest, especially those working on social entrepreneurship.

Social Enterprise and Technology

I'm a social enterprise research consultant at the University of British Columbia, and I'm also working with Vancity Credit Union in Vancouver, British Columbia on accountability frameworks for social enterprise.

I'm interested in hearing about how social enterprises are using technology to improve their impact and performance. If anyone has an interesting stories or case studies - please don't hesitate to fire them my way.

I also host a minimalist blog on the topic here. Stop by and give me your two cents. I try to be provocative and to the point.

Three Free, Easy Ways to Add a Calendar to Your Web Site

Three Free, Easy Ways to Add a Calendar to Your Web Site - Putting a calendar on your Web site can be a great way to keep supporters up-to-date on important events, meetings, and deadlines. All you need is an Internet connection, a Web browser, and a bit of spare time.

This caught my attention because I see it's more like an events diary than a calandar. It's available as a module in DotNetNuke as I suspect it is in most CMS products.

In fact my own organisation uses such a product, not to keep track of our events but as a revenue generating facilities management product which yeilds the funds needed to maintain our human rights advocacy.
