Last year, we were lucky enough to have Kevin Lee join our community. Though Kevin, we've learned that lots of SEO is not scary at all. You can do it, too! I talked to him about his upcoming session at the 2009 NTC, DIY Search Engine Optimization. Comments[0] |

Robert's leading two sessions at the NTC this year, both on the theme "So You Want to Be a Consultant". He took time out on a rainy Friday to chat with me In addition to being a really nice guy, Robert is a foodie. He points out several great restaurants in the interview:
He also recommends you check out this -- AND ONLY THIS -- in the Fisherman's Wharf area: The Musee Mecanique. I warn you, though, that even the website gives me the willies.

Johanna Bates has been working at Community Partners for a long time now. She started out stuffing envelopes, graduated to accidental techie, and is now the Director of Technology Strategy. It's fitting, then, that she's leading a session at the NTC about becoming a career nonprofit technologist. Last week, I had the chance to talk to her about her session, Career NPTechies: How to graduate from the accidental techie academy and become a tech leader. (You can also read her article on the topic, published in our January newsletter.) I first met Johanna in 2002. Or maybe 2003. I can't remember. What I do remember is how very funny, charming, gracious and fun Johanna was -- and still is! At the 2007 Nonprofit Technology Conference, Johanna and I were both missing our kids, and bonded over the fact that seeing "Goodnight Moon" in the hotel gift shop made us kind of weepy. She's a fantastic part of the NTEN community, and we're lucky to have her! Comments[0] |

When I hear the words "search engine optimization," I picture blackboards covered in chalky scrawl, like in 
I
get a lot of calls from organizations looking for consultants to help
them with their fundraising databases. I also get a lot of calls from
consultants looking for advice on how best to thrive in the nonprofit
space. In both cases, my first instinct is to tell them to call Robert
Weiner.
