Assessing costs for blogging using a shared IP at a nonprofit - 0 views

  •  
    The shared IP is a good affordable choice... Nexcess.net was mentioned but there certainly others that would offer a comparable cost of 135.00 per year. You do have to shop wisely and avoid pitfalls in certain offers. Typically there is cost overruns when a certain amount of traffic is achieved. It would be imperative to understand what your anticipated traffic is and exactly how much you could afford. Some of these plans are designed to pigeon-hole the consumer. It would be considered a good problem to need a higher traffic plan at 270.00 because the investment should return much more than cost.

Keeping social media current in your nonprofit organization - 0 views

  •  
    Someone needs to stay on this mission, inside or outside of the organization. The only way to keep things current is to keep someone watching over the process. A failure to monitor your IT investments is a colossal waste of the investment. Social media is a long-term obligation if you want to participate. This article also recommends that interns shouldn't overlook this process. You want to choose an associate for the long-term but it is ok to choose someone outside of the organization if they understand what is required.

What Happens When the Internet Runs Out of Addresses - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  • Today, the Internet that Mr. Cerf helped create more than 30 years ago is about to max out. Within the next 12 to 18 months, or perhaps sooner, every single 4.3 billion Internet Protocol addresses will be allocated, and the Internet, at least as it exists today, will have reached full capacity. “There are 4.3 billion addresses, and a lot of people have more than one,” said Leo Vegoda, manager of number resources at Icann. “And there are seven billion people on the planet. That’s a big mismatch.”

Government Technology - 0 views

  •  
    Watson, the computer that has recently been competing on Jeopardy, could eventually hold a position in Government. Technology like the such that is used in Watson could eventually help government municipalities with garnering and analyzing data and information and regurgitating back to people who need it. For instance, a person looking to gain a building license could tell the computer what it is planning on building, and instead of having to sift through possibly thousands of pages of information, the computer could simply return a checklist to the person.

    This site shows government technology solutions for local and state governments. I was particularly drawn in by the article of about Watson, the Jeopardy game show computer contestant, and how this type of technology could be beneficial to government programs.

Mayor Bloomberg Announces Use of Quick Response (QR) Codes on Permits - 2 views

  •  
    Simple use by New York city of QR codes on building permits to provide links to additional information. 
  •  
    Wow. Just think, I didn't even know what QR codes were a few weeks ago. I really see them blooming in the next few years (Ha!Bloomberg/ Blooming!). I scanned one from a Meijers grocery coupon and got a 10 second commercial sent back to me.
  •  
    Very progressive! Excellent use for that specific labeling technology --- especially in a high density population area where a construction project could be a big hassle. This would make it easy for the public passerby to find out more about it, and perhaps a target completion date. Plus, you are certain the contractor has a legal permit from the city of New York for the work they are doing.
