A round-up for a busy week

Everybody else is just as busy as I am, I always tell myself. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want to share some of the great resources I come across!

Here are a few items that I have recently found and hope to talk more about soon:

  • Open Source opportunity: Learn about OpenOffice, a free, open source alternative to Microsoft Office applications, in this webinar from NTEN!
  • Video submissions: Video Party, the Montreal-based organization, wants to know how you would change the world, in video form. Submissions are due February 7th. Learn more about the contest on their website.
  • Political voice: Nonprofits are now able to hear from and track political candidates’ responses to questions about nonprofit partnership and participation in government affairs. Check out the V3 Campaign to learn more and see what your politicians have said!
  • New blog: Nonprofit University, the blog from the Nonprofit Center at La Salle University, recently started. I am excited to follow and participate with Laura Otten and hope you will join me!

What have you come across this week so far that you don’t want to fall through the cracks?
