A big love bomb of thanks to all who joined us for past Dev Summit's, as well as all of you who will join in the fun at this year's high-spirited, fully-interactive festival of folks who are passionate about developing software tools to support the work of social change organizations and community activists.

We'll be posting more info soon, but in the meantime, check out last year's proceedings:

• 2012 Agenda and session notes from the event!

Aspiration is delighted to invite you to the Strategic Tech Teach-In, taking place in Oakland, California from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm on Tuesday, March 26th. The event is made possible by the generous support of the Mitchell Kapor Foundation.

Register here.

This one-day event will provide nonprofit organizations with an opportunity to explore best practices in nonprofit tech, raise their questions and concerns, and learn how others are applying digital and mobile tools in support of their social change efforts.

The agenda will be richly interactive and participant-driven. The focus will be on dialog and collaboration, and a primary objective will be to establish opportunities for participants to build and strengthen relationships where they can share knowledge and find support. We will engage registered participants before the event to invite thoughts and suggestions on what should be on the agenda and what kinds of outcomes will make time at the event well spent.

Register here.

The event will be held at Preservation Park, which is located in Downtown Oakland. Continental breakfast and lunch will be provided.

Check out the Schedule and Session List, and we hope to see you on the 26th.

Because one can never amass enough frequent flyer miles, it’s off to Sydney, Australia to make merry at ConnectingUp 2012 with our finest friends from down under.

Gunner will be delivering a keynote entitled Another Cloud is Possible (download keynote slides) and offering a full-day workshop, Taking Control of Your Nonprofit’s Online Destiny. He is also offically tickled pink the ConnectingUp gang has invited him to share in the MC duties.

A big thanks to ConnectingUp for having us down, and we look forward to all the fun at CU12, and many future adventures!

We headed straight from the Soapbox User Summit to Geneva, Switzerland to facilitate the Internet Society’s first-ever Collaborative Leadership Exchange, an interactive community discussion which took place at the start of Global INET 2012.

Check out the #ISOCCLX listening dashboard as well as a great write-up about the event!
