How to raise money to support your group
by Luis Gustavo Lira 20 Jun '09

20 Jun '09

Hi, I am curious whether any of the groups subscribed to the list are successfully using Ads or other kind of advertising on their blogs/sites to raise money to support their ongoing efforts. If anyone has experience with approaching corporations or foundations for money to sustain projects in exchange for ads on their site. Another way to think about it is whether projects can make money offering services. I'm doing some research on sustainability and fundraising. We are using adsence and amazon on our blogs however our founds sources are the traditional, usually International NGOs with local chapters in Peru: Ashoka, Lemelson, NESsT, Tecnoserve, etc. http://scitechbizdev.blogspot.com/ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ¡Obtén la mejor experiencia en la web!

SFD is on Talk Like a Pirate Day?
by R. Steven Rainwater 19 Jun '09

I just noticed that SFD 2009 is scheduled to occur on International Talk Like a Pirate Day (19 Sep). Is that intentional, perhaps to raise the topic of software piracy or something? Or was it just a coincidence? I'm betting the SFD t-shirts and artwork this year have some sort of pirate theme! :) -Steve
