Technology for Nonprofits & Communities is Madison Nonprofit Day's first effort to present a full schedule of technology and technology related topics that are accessible to and enhance both the nonprofits and the community. The workshops hopefully appeal to a wide range of individuals from nonprofit staff and volunteers to social entrepreneurs, accidental techies, students, and the community. Madison Nonprofit Day joined with Sector67 to create a community friendly, technology education day. The workshops are all ages, so bring your children and teens along.

SilverStripe CMS is built on this powerful, and soon standalone framework that gives developers complete flexibility of design and feature set. Weʼll run through a SilverStripe installation, project setup, and then dive into extending the CMS. Presenter: Ryan Wachtl

Paintbrushes, Toothpicks, and Debian: A Tale of Linux in the Developing World (Grant Dobbe)
Quick Practical Introduction to Emacs (Eric Veenendaal)
