Mitch Nauffts has published an interview with me in Foundation News Digest.
It covers a lot of ground, including our work on email, some background on
The Gilbert Center, our research work, the nature of ePhilanthropy, and many
other topics.

The United Kingdom is much like the United States, with the poor giving
twice the proportion of their income to charity compared to the wealthy.

Scott Kirsner offers great advice on email style. His conclusions are all
consistent with my own. I wonder how they will be applied by the
organizations in the email study we're conducting....

2001 was a remarkable year. Like many people I know, I'm very glad it's
over. In 2001: Luncheons, Email, News, Email, a Spoof, and More Email , we
celebrate the transition to 2002 and give thanks to the people that got us
here.

Monday, December 31, 2001:
In 2001, we held a series of five well attended luncheons on the subject of
the Future of Nonprofit Technology. Since then, we have evaluated the series
in the context of some great feedback from the participants. We learned a
few important things about the logistics of running luncheons. More
importantly, the topics we were exploring have matured and become more
focused.
We are pleased to announce our 2002 Technology Leadership Luncheon Series.
We will be picking up and developing last years themes into a presentation
that focuses on how nonprofit leaders -- managers, consultants, funders, and
others -- can seize control of the technology agenda and position it in
support of organizational effectiveness.
The first luncheon of the year will be in San Diego on January 24th. RSVP
online !
