Having spent a number of years in the start-up world, I know that nothing kills a great idea faster than poor project management. Project management provides an organized framework for planning and implementing successful projects. Join NTEN and Norman Reiss for the aptly-named webinar, "Project Management for Nonprofits", and learn how your organization can apply basic project management principles.

If you're reading this, it's likely that you'll be joining us in New Orleans for the 2008 NTC next month. Even if you aren't, you may want to follow all the action via Twitter. Indeed, we have set up a twitter account just for the conference:

http://twitter.com/08NTC

When you choose to follow it, it will auto-magically follow you in return. This means we'll be able to see the tweets from all individuals following 08NTC at:

http://twitter.com/08NTC/with_friends

Viewing that page will let you see the full stream of everyone's tweets during the event. Alternately, you can subscribe to the RSS feed of that stream at:

How does that sound as a plan? Anyone want to recommend an alternate idea?

Last week, I had the great pleasure of visiting Austin, TX for the TIG conference. I gave a presentation on the power of municipal wireless networks and mobile devices -- two great flavors that are going to taste even better together!

James spent some time heckling me from the front row, but he finally took pity and let me finish. Turns out, it was a good presentation for him!

Here are my slides, should they be useful to you. Props to MobileCommons for letting us do the demo.
