In the last month, NTEN staff have rested and recuperated (Jessica even traveled to China!), and debriefed a whole lot of the NTC. We also read through all of the NTC evaluations! We didn''t want to split up these post-NTC conversations so have sacrificed brevity in the hopes of completeness. Want to re-live the magic?

I was disappointed when it was announced that the NTEN NTC would be in San Francisco this year. The NTC is the nonprofit technology conference. I though the NTC would be out of my reach. And then my friends at Convio got together with the good folks at NTEN and did something wonderful. It will be worth it.

Ask on listservs ( ProgEx , NTEN Affinity Groups , ISF Yahoo group , etc.) Many non-tech people (i.e., We live inside the tech jargon bubble, so it's easy to forget that not everyone does.

But we also want to share the things that were awesome, the pieces of the NTC that we feel pretty good about at the end of the day.

Figure out what core Tech you have. Categorize that core Tech Now add one more column to your chart: commodity or value. You can learn more at my session at the 2011 Nonprofit Technology Conference , " Small Org Doesn't Equal Small Tech ". Small orgs work quickly, but often times that acceleration lacks direction.
