LOLnptechLOLnptech [1]NTEN members were sharing lots of great tips, checklists, and resources online last week.

Colin Delany, of e.politics [2], shared his Social Marketing "cheat sheet" for using Web2.0 tools for engagement and fundraising purposes.

If you're a do-it-yourself kind of nonprofit when it comes to designing your web site, you might want to check out Kivi Leroux Miller's "10-Point Basic Website Checklist for Nonprofits [3]".

For anyone plagued by email delivery statistics (or curious about what your organization should be considering when it comes to email messaging), take a look at NTEN member and NTC [4]speaker Bill Pease's helpful tips [5].

Marnie Webb provides a couple of posts about integrating Twitter [6]into your communications practice: first, she brings Twitter into the virtual tool chest [7] she's building for her readers, then shares a list of Twitter resources [8] that can help you maximize your Twitter-effectiveness.

Speaking of Twitter, Rose Vines is the back-channeling star of the NTEN community. Fortunately for us, she shares her tips [9] for using Twitter for good (documenting and sharing).

In other news, NTEN members are . . .

Reflecting: Amy Sample Ward on the Women Who Tech Telesummit [10] last week.

Predicting: The team over at Beaconfire shares their Web6.0 predictions [11] (April Fools style).

Thinking about metrics: David Geilhufe wants to develop a scorecard for a software donation program.

Rolling out SaaS: Blackbaud announces [12]a new SaaS version of their Internet marketing and communications solution.

Blogging: World Learning and Michaela Hackner have launched a new blog [13] for their organization to help engage and inform their community.

Mentoring: Beth Kanter shares an online mentoring opportunity [14] with her readers, matching Nigerian women working in social development and change organizations with ICT professionals via the W.TEC [15] Networking for Success project.

I know there are more NTEN members online, so if you're looking to get your name in lights (or in bold, at least), then don't forget to tag your news and tips with "nten member."

Not a member of NTEN [16] yet? What are you waiting for? (Seriously, let us know. Leave a comment!)
