There is *NO* May MadTech meeting. I will be in Chicago on that day and didn't have time to find a replacement presenter. So the summer schedule looks like:

'Things Learned From Madison Nonprofit Day' was easy. There were a number of potentially actionable items that came out of Madison Nonprofit Day. And we'v…

Thanks to everyone who came to Wednesday's presentation; but acknowledge that bad weather and ailments kept quite a few of you away. Trust me, when I say, I would have stayed home if I wasn't giving the presentation.
That said, the topic generated quite a lot of interest, and got me thinking that whenever possible, MadTech should make materials and information available from the meetings as part of a public archive. To that effort, here are links to the various components of the talk:

The January Meeting is tonight, Wednesday, 21 Jan at 6pm. This will primarily be a meet & greet (aka social) meeting. To honor the New Year, and to invite more people to participate; I figured a casual, more social event could start the year.
I'll host the event at my apartment, which is just down the street from our semi-regular location at Goodman Atwood Community Center. Food and beverages provided. Please feel free to invite a friend. I'll have flyers for the February Meet. The February…
