Next week, Zoey and I will be at the NetSquared Conference in San Jose, CA and if you're one of the 350 lucky participants attending, we would love to connect with you!

NetSquared is a two-day event of innovators in social benefit initiatives & technology to advance change around the globe.

This is all about how NGOs can use social tools to collaborate, share information and mobilize support using FOSS (like Drupal), blogs, wikis, RSS, podcasting, user-generated content, twitter, and all the other key tools and buzzwords.

Also, take a moment and give our Mashup idea a "star" (vote) and help us support the Network for Good API.

I've been watching some feeds recently for particular terms, for example, DRM on technorati, google news search, google blog search, digg and delicious. What I have noticed is that the same story gets blogged about on a 100 blogs, mostly pretty little, and many with very little extra information. There is nothing wrong with blogging stories like that. I do it all the time. But it sure can get tedious wading through to find the good one, maybe the one with some new info, or the one worth linking too.
