Skillz & Requests

The Day On website is ready to start connecting nonprofit organizations with needs to geeks ready to give advice and assistance.

Nonprofits can now follow three easy steps to get started down the road to some geekly attention and volunteers can let us know their geekly skillz so we can hook them up with friends in need.

Also check out our new views of people and organizations participating in Day On.

Next up: enable geeks to claim requests for advice so we aren't duplicating efforts unnecessarily.

Let us know any suggestions we can use to make Day On better...and don't forget: join us 9am-5pm, Monday, January 19, 2009 at CubeSpace.

Coming by

Hi All - I'll be coming by CubeSpace later in the morning. Even if It's just for a cup of tea and a few minutes of conversation I want to say in advance that I appreciate what you are doing for non-profits!

wiki help

I'm planning on coming for the whole day tomorrow (or at least morning and early afternoon) and will be ready to help with:

  • connecting your distributed volunteer organization using a wiki
  • getting by without IT staff using google's email, web, and office tools

I'd also like to talk about how to share the cost of maintaining IT assets by forming a coop. I'm interested in setting something like this up. An initial set of tools might look something like:

  • MoinMoin wiki
  • Drupal for CRM
  • Roundup for threaded discussion/mailing lists
