Flickr Photo: DunechaserI'm shovelling my way out of both snow and email this week.
The snow part has been humorous (because Portlanders don't do snow). The email in-box project has also been surprisingly fun: I found quite a few tidbits -- or this n'at, as Pittsurghers would say -- worth sharing.
Here are some of the things I came across that you might also enjoy:
- Batgirl fights for equal pay. This is a great example of nonprofit video done right. Congrats to the Center for American Progress.
- The Security Quiz. I'll admit, I couldn't answer a few of these. Bad Geek! I'm not sure your staff needs to know what an AUP is to secure your data properly, but I think talking about security with staff is good.
- The Change.gov Widget. Get all your Obama administration news wherever you go, without CNN (thus avoiding Nancy Grace).
- Five things we learned from Bill Gates. You may recall that Bill Gates stepped down from his full-time role at Microsoft this year. The folks at TechRepbulic take a look at what we can learn from him. My favorite: it's not being first, but executing the idea best that matters.
- Rapleaf. I had heard of these guys before, but finally signed up for a sample analysis of the NTEN community. Surprise! You guys have a LOT of profiles on social networks. And a lot of friends. People like you! They also have some really interesting stats about social network usage.
- KnightPulse. The latest project from the Knight Foundation does some really innovative stuff. In the KnightPulse community, you can talk about everything from the future of newspapers to content licensing schemes.
- Finally -- and this is not at all NPTech related, but you KNOW how I feel about bacon -- instead of a yule log this year, why not try a Bacon Log? (Link courtesy of my fabulous husband, whom I clearly do not deserve.)
