"Eat Our Own Dog Food"
This is a common phrase amoung software development companies. One that I believe in strongly. It basically means, use the same software that you are selling/offering to your clients.
This is my first blog post on our new TCAG website and I am proud to say that we are using several Plone add-on modules to run this blog. It features Quills and Scrawl.
I point this out because I think it is important. Since we run most of our client sites on Plone, it is important that we too try to use it whenever and wherever we can. This way we can figure out what works, what doesn't and what needs improvement. All of which can be used to improve our client's experience.
So here goes...

Big Fan of Idealware.org
This group consistently produces helpful resources for evaluating technology.
I have always been a fan of the folks at Idealware.org.
They consistently produce high quality reports that are very helpful when trying to make sense of the overwhelming number of technologies that non-profits and associations use.
In there most recent newsletter, they included a simple overview of "Comparing Options for Collaboration Software". It's this type of report that is perfect to share with volunteer leaders of associations to help educate them to the various options that exist.
Idealware... keep up the good work!
