So I decided to take about nine months off from posting here. Why? Well mainly due to the fact that I’m lazy, and two, things have been pretty busy at work.

Anyway, I’ll be posting again on a relatively normal basis. I’ll probably write more about life in general (someone has to complain about the T), but still talking about the ‘08 elections. Either way, I’m back.

Off to see the new Batman movie. I’ll let you know how it is (though I’m pretty sure I already know).

Today the Clinton and Edwards camps announced that they raised $4.2 and $3.2 million online respectively in the first quarter. These numbers are highly impressive, but what I’m really interested in hearing are Barack Obama’s online numbers. He is boasting over 82,000 online donors on his site, so I would expect him to surpass these numbers. The internet is going to be a critical place to raise money for 2008, and it will be interesting to see if Obama’s approach has paid off.

Tonight following Curt Schillings impressive 19 pitch, two-inning start to spring training, he went on the Sons of Sam Horn message board and announced that he will be starting a blog soon. As a Sox fan and one that is not too thrilled with how the mainstream media reports on the team, I am very excited. While Schilling can sometimes go over the line with his comments, I think this is the perfect forum for him to speak his mind. I’m very excited to see how it evolved. He’s even asking members of SoSH to help him with the name. Pretty cool if you ask me.

Hi everyone,

Welcome to my new website dedicated to online communications. It’s going to take me a few days to get up and running, but I will be posting daily updates on issues ranging from how the Presidential candidates are using the Internet to gain supporters and money, to how bad my commute was on the T (let’s hope those are few and far between). I’ll also talk about some great examples of organizations using the internet/online communications to further their cause. I will also be providing reports from the Nonprofit Technology Conference in April and the Convio Users Conference in October. Hopefully you will find this a useful resource.

Thanks for reading and wish me luck!
