  • Yahoo! Green Award
    Yahoo! is looking for innovative “green mashups” that will inspire people to use social technology to help the environment. Yahoo! will review the project submissions included in the “Environment” Cause Area of the Project Gallery on the NetSquared web site. Following the NetSquared Conference (N2Y3), Yahoo! will make their final selection.  For more information go to:  http://www.netsquared.org/mashup/yahoogreenaward
  • More talk about Twitter
    Here is a BusinessWeek article about Why Twitter Matters – Be sure to check out the slide show (link at end of article) for more great commentary.
  • Get with open source
    The Nonprofit Open Source Initiative has a great webinar coming up about choosing and using FOSS (free, open source software).  More information is available on their site; you can register with NTEN.
  • Collaboration gets rewarded
    The $250,000 Collaboration Prize from the Lodestar Foundation will reward collaboration between two or more nonprofit organizations working together on the same issue/project.  “The Prize also seeks to build an information base of effective practice models that can be studied and used by academics, nonprofit leaders and grantmakers to inspire and advance their work.”  You can find out more from their site.
  • Myanmar and GIS
    I love seeing Google Earth and mapping technologies at work, and thanks to Brett for pointing me (in my backlog/overwhelming state of emails and RSS) to Direct Relief International’s layer in Google Earth.  Check it out.

I’m sure there is so much else to add to this list.  Leave a comment with everything I missed!
