Going to the Nonprofit Technology Conference in New Orleans?

Want to meet members of the NetSquared, TechSoup and Nonprofits in Second Life community? Join us for cocktails on Wednesday, March 19th from 5-6:30 PM at Loa Bar in the International Hotel (221 Camp Street). We'll be meeting in the "altar" area.

It's super close to the Sheraton New Oreans (where NTC is being held). Here's a Google Map of the two locales.

It looks kinda fancy, so bring your party shoes!

Big thanks to all the New Orleans natives who gave us suggestions for a venue!!

Mind the Gap, part 1

This is the first part of a rant I have been mulling over for about 3 years now. I want to get it up before the end of the event, so I will save my proposal for a second post.

Advanced nonprofit technology practitioners need a place to connect and learn from each other. Who will fill this gap?

For years this was the collective whine from the hundreds of NTAPs who attend the Nonprofit Technology Conference to help other colleagues in the sector. When NetSquared was announced in 2005, I was excited to hear they would be bringing together the best minds from the nonprofit world with the leading technologists. Would this be the long-awaited venue for advanced "NPTECH" conversation?
