Press Release Tools

For an individual connection try Gotomypc (www.gotomypc.com) or logmein

(www.logmein.com) . The former is about $15/month and the latter is free.

PBWiki - we started off here, throwing ideas against the wall and waiting to see what

would stick. The wiki still has great potential for our organization, but for the

moment we’ve moved beyond this.

GuyFROG.org, appended it to our gmail accounts and it’s been love ever since. You

can’t beat the price and their customer support has been solid. I spent a little less

than $10 for the domain for a year, we were hoping to land FROG.org, but that didn’t

happen

FormAssembly - this free tool allows us to build ad-sponsored forms for whatever

purposes until we’re able to get on our own server.

Craigslist, Upcoming.org, & Eventful are web-based calendar apps we used to publicly

post our launch event and spread the word quickly. They each have unique and

common features and I wanted to take advantage where I could.

Idealist - we registered with Idealist, a no-brainer, as a non-profit to take advantage of

their services but also to post our event.
