Google Voice that is... but wait, what is Google Voice? Google Voice is an internet based call forwarding service, FREE of charge unless placing international calls. It's currently released by invite only but it's pretty easy to get an invite...
I’ve had my head down for quite some time now (haven’t you noticed everyone is so busy lately?) and the launch of Firefox 3.5 almost passed me by without much notice. Well, it almost did until my browser kept crashing unexpectedly and I noticed it recommended...
Try to say that title one time fast (yeah, don't even bother with three times fast)! Phew! Why the alliteration? Well I recently signed up for Twitter a few months ago to see what it was all about, and it wasn’t until I understood the power of it...
Once and a while I find a cool, small detail about a tool or website that makes a huge difference to me – so much so, I feel the need to share. I especially appreciate them when they save me steps and time! Here are eight to get you started... 1. Merge...
Well have no fear, because Scrim is here! Scrim is a wonderful new tool that masks your email address from the spam bots that scour the internet to find an email to send their "spicy meat" to. Think of Scrim as Tinyurl for your email address...
Yeah! It’s fun to have co-workers just randomly mention a cool tool in a meeting and then off you go on a learning adventure. Thanks to Georgeanne, I was recently introduced to Xobni (inbox backwards). http://www.xobni.com/ Xobni (pronounced Zob nee)...
Wow, for a geek, I'm sitting here even more geeked up (especially for a Monday). I recently found out this blog is included on the Nonprofit Technology website as a blog source. Nonprofittech.com is a website that was started by Beth Kanter as a way...
Authoring in SharePoint – a world unto its own for those of you brave enough to venture into adding web parts, setting up sites and workspaces, and playing around with site settings. I find it’s often more like a treasure hunt than a systematic process...
I confess. I don’t Digg and I have no idea what to use it for. In fact, just the other day I submitted my first article. And it doesn’t even really count since it’s one of my own blog posts. I just wanted to test the process. Sadly, as of today, 6 days...
I noticed this week that Causes in Facebook seem to have improved their ease of recruiting. I was recruited to a couple of my favorite local nonprofits and in return could invite others all without much effort. The other nice part about Causes in Facebook...
Sometimes keeping up with the amount of information, news, and blogs on the Internet can be time-consuming, unproductive, and frustrating. I know for the longest time I had a routine down where I'd visit my list of sites every morning looking for...
Being in the business of explaining technical things, it’s easy to skip the obvious and jump to the difficult stuff. After all, since we can make educated guesses of what people will struggle with; why not jump to explaining that content? However, doing...
A while back, I worked on a grant with a colleague and friend Brian (who’s now an amazing interaction designer and information architect in the DC area), and I fondly remember even then having some great conversations about tools. He really inspired me...
Ever been frustrated trying to find an image when you use Google search? I usually like the Google search especially when you can choose file size. However, I don't always find the quality or the artistic value I'm looking for. Lately, I've...
With all the buzz around social networking in BBNC 5.5, I’m very excited about the possibilities. But are you still wondering what Facebook is all about? First I’ll give you a background on my experiences with Facebook and then some recommendations on...
