09.20.07And the answer is…Does SalesForce work for nonprofits? According to my highly sophisticated survey... yes. The data: Now you might suggest that nonprofits who had tried SalesForce and hated it might not come to a SF conference in the first place. And further, that the 80 or so of the 350 at the conference that came the breakout session on the AppExchange (which is the marketplace for SF plug-ins) might be the geekier subset and therefore susceptable to acts of impulsive optimism, but: 80% of the people in the room indicated that "YES, mine works!". 90% of people that had used an AppExchange module said "YES, it ...

06.20.07Interview with Joe Green and Chris Chan of Project AgapeWe all know that Project Agape (uh-GAH-pay) has left the nptech world breathless with its amazing viral growth on Facebook. As a result of that growth and the constant hits on my earlier Project Agape post, I decided to do a quick interview with Project Agape. Micah Sifry has already done an excellent interview on the political and social implications of Project Agape but I had yet to see any technical information on how the Causes app on Facebook was built and maintained so I decided to call in for an interview. In short order, Project Agape turned around my ...

12.10.06Three office technologies better than Web 2.0I'd like to expand further on my earliest post about Nonprofit 2.0. Specifically, I want to talk about the things that Org 2.0 proponents don't seem to consider when they get excited about the latest social media experiment. I feel that there is a serious disconnect between Org 2.0 proponents and people like me who are actually trying to do the hard work of instilling IT and associated IT practices into our employees' daily work routines.

10.26.06Blackbaud SMACKDOWN!Wow! I was just sent an Acrobat file about Blackbaud's new Infinity platform for Raiser's Edge. It further deepens my impression that Blackbaud IS listening to the growing swell of support for open APIs. Blackbaud is fully supporting a SOAP Web Service API in its next release complete with XML interchange and some sort of RSS notification. I guess the RSS functionality was necessary in order to re-create the dashboard functionality in Raiser's Edge 7.x. More after the jump... Continue Reading...

07.27.06A long night with my Exchange ServerSigh, I'm doing an offline defragmentation of my MS Exchange Server. Please don't do what I did and wait until the database is 37 GB in size (that's for priv1.edb and priv1.stm). I'm in for a long haul tonight as I wait for the database to defrag on its own. I've already had problems with lack of file space due to automated backups running on my online backup program interfering with the temp files that eseutil, MS's Exchange defrag utility, was creating. At least, it's not too slow (3 GB every 10 minutes). At this rate it should be done around ...

04.13.06Treo 650 and Treo 700W ReviewI happen to be responsible for 12 Treo 650s and 4 Treo 700Ws all purchased from Verizon Wireless. From a corporate IT point of view, Treo 650s require more maintenance especially when using Verizon's Workgroup Monitor which is responsible for forwarding MS Exchange data to Verizon's web cache of your data. I've found that the Treo 650 at least as provisioned by Verizon Wireless is a problematic phone at best because the sync software performs poorly. I've confirmed that with Verizon Wireless DTS technical support and they also report a lot of frustration with the product. There is a ...
