Many of the people I speak to every day make a point of telling me they “aren’t a computer genius”. I always laugh and say, hey, neither am I!

This column is for you, the accidental techies.

So, for those of you who have less time to do all this "listening" on nonprofit technology, I'm posting a blog each Friday with the top resources I found in the last week.
