Aspiration Executive Director Allen Gunn was delighted to speak at the 2010 Annual Conference of the Forum of Regional Associations of Grantmakers, on one of his favorite topics, Effective Social Media Workflow.
Aspiration once again partnered with TechSoup for another free webinar, Around the Twitter World in 60 Minutes.
Twitter has claimed its place on the short list of communications tools for nonprofits and libraries to consider when designing online strategies. The webinar surveyed the Twitter landscape, explaining core concepts, enumerating best practices, and describing the tools and tactics that exist to leverage Twitter's strengths.
Aspiration was giddy happy to be invited to present the latest, greatest version of our "What Should A Web Site Cost" slideware on TechSoup's December Webinar.
The online event was attended by over 200 great folks who posed excellent questions and comments. You can check out the audio from the webinar, as well as the resource list of great web site implementors and designers.
Thanks to Kami Griffiths at TechSoup for inviting us on over!
From David Geilhufe. CivicCRM is an open source constituency relationship management application running on Drupal (for now):
"Progress on CiviCRM is coming along well and now is the time to get involved!...CiviCRM is now ready to be integrated into other applications. If you have or are considering an NPO application that stores CRM data (contacts, relationships, actions), please take a look at CiviCRM as a basis for your project.
CiviCRM is open source and as long as you contribute your modifications to CiviCRM back to the community, you can do anything you want with the software. CiviCRM is already being adapted by consultants for custom applications in fundraising and member management.
Gunner and the Aspiration team have been an incredible inspiration and resource for us at OpenNews. Our organization would not be the same without the open approach that Aspiration and Gunner model so well, and their ongoing coaching and support as our programs evolve. Thanks!
