Tidbits

January 9, 2009

Some stuff from my inbox. (A lot of these are 2008 news, therefore, kinda old. But still interesting to me.)

  • Appirio releases their top 10 predictions for cloud computing in 2009. One of the more interesting ones is that “a major SaaS 1.0 company will fail.” I kind of wonder about some of the early nonprofit-focused SaaS offerings, and how long they might have to live, given the strength of Salesforce.com
  • Third Sector New England, a Boston-based nonprofit capacity-building organization launched a series of “FAQ” videos for nonprofits. Useful stuff.
  • NARAL Pro-choice America launched an innovative ad campaign. Very neat stuff, and a great use of video and YouTube.
