Wanna take your organization to the next level through the effective use of online collaboration and planning? Join Missoula non-profits and techies as we explore the following:

* What staff/members really think about your projects, staff policies, etc. (RiseUp + GrupThink)

* Wikis + Document Collaboration and Sharing

* Internal planning + Event and project coordination (gcal, basecamp)

* How to trim a 5 minute interaction into 5 seconds (IM)

* Overcoming organizational resistance to all of the above

The Missoula 501 Tech Club is an informal monthly gathering of people working on, or interested in, nonprofit technology in Missoula, Montana (and surrounding areas). Our monthly meetings will rotate from a brownbag lunch workshop to a social hour at the 501 Lounge (Iron Horse) called the 501 Tech Lounge. These gatherings are great opportunities for anyone interested in helping nonprofits use technology (or understand how to use technology) in a fun, informal setting. As our name refers to the fact that most of us work primarily with and for 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. The Mlsa 501 Club is one of many 501 Clubs around the nation affiliated with the Nonprofit Technology Network (NTEN).

p.s bring your laptop!
