How to Check Your Website on Different Browsers
Tips from Wild Apricot's Nonprofit Technology Blog
http://www.wildapricot.com/blogs/newsblog/archive/...
by Rebecca Leaman
Cross-browser compatibility has long been a frustration for website designers. What looks fine in one browser may be more or less “broken” in another, with sidebars shifted and elements overlapping... But does it really matter, how your website looks in different browsers, in the big picture of what your organization is trying to accomplish with an online presence?
Yes.
Browser compatibility is about much more than a pretty presentation, although the importance of a professional-looking design should not be downplayed. Sometimes, the effects of how different browsers interpret the code for a web page are so pronounced that your website can be difficult to navigate for users of one browser or another. It can become less inviting, if not downright unusable, for a whole section of your potential audience.

Web 2.0 - Building, Growing and Sustaining a Vibrant Online Community
Shiny Objects Vs. Solid Investments
www.charitydynamics.com
by Abby Sandlin, Charity Dynamics
At this year’s NTEN conference in New Orleans, I spoke to a packed room of a hundred or so nonprofit managers eager to harness the power of Web 2.0 for their organization. Web 2.0 refers to a new generation of web-based communities and hosted services such as social networking sites and blogs that facilitate sharing and collaboration between users.
There’s a lot of buzz about Web 2.0 tools and how they are revolutionizing the nonprofit industry, but are they just the latest shiny objects to have caught our attention? Or are they actually worth investing time and money into? The answer is yes, of course—in both cases. Allow me to explain.
