Netroots Wisconsin will be a regional conference of Netroots Nation on Sept. 25 in Madison, WI. It will be a place for the Netroots folks in Wisconsin to meet each other, discuss issues, and celebrate the Cheddarsphere. We also hope to invite progressive politicians from the state, and have discussion on the future of journalism in Wisconsin, local blogging, and how to be more effective bloggers/citizen journalists. More importantly, Netroots Wisconsin will be whatever the attendees want it to be. So put up your suggestions on this site. Registration is now open. Conference details, session proposals, and more are now available at our web site - http://netrootswisconsin.org For more information contact Steve Hanson at shanson@netrootswisconsin.org.

Nonprofits need a website for a number of reasons, including: for presence, information distribution, communication, connection with a wider, broader audience, to create an organizational brand, and more. While the debate on “whether or not your nonprofit needs a website has been settled and filed, the debate on which content management system (CMS) is still wide open. There are a multitude of content management systems (CMS), all offering various benefits for you and your organization. This presentation will discuss ExpressionEngine as one of the many CMSs for you to choose from. It will offer a brief comparison to WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal; tips and techniques on choosing a web developer, future proofing your website, and more. This Madison Nonprofit Day workshop is presented by Ben Seigel, exp designs. Ben runs the Madison Web Design & Development Meetup.
