Just off the chute of the Massachusetts Nonprofit Network conference in Boston – great networking with some of the charitable organizations in the area. A few quick tech takeaways:

• No one knows the term “microblogging,” but they’ve heard of Twitter. (Hint, Twitter is a microblogging app. Same with Plurk. Follow me.)
• Few organizations are happy with their website as it stands.
• Everyone’s interested in social media but have no idea where to begin learning about it (Hint: if you’re a Massachusetts congregation, here’s your chance.)
• The older generations are in a totally different place when it comes to being online than the younger generations, but at least they know it.
