Tonight I attended a social mixer co-hosted by Google and the href="http://www.nten.org/" >Nonprofit Technology
Network (NTEN), a nationwide membership organization of several
thousand nonprofit technology professionals who want to help
nonprofits use technology more effectively.

Not only did the event offer DJ Hey Man! — Darian Rodriguez
Heyman, Executive Director of the href="http://www.craigslistfoundation.org/" >Craigslist
Foundation — the opportunity to show off his skills as a DJ,
but it brought together nearly 150 members of nonprofits to hear
such speakers as Katrin Verclas of NTEN, and Ami Dar of href="http://www.idealist.org/" >Idealist.org, plus Camron
Assadi, Partnerships Officer for href="http://www.mercycorps.org/" >Mercy Corps, and Daniel
Heath, Network Administrator for the href="http://www.ebcrp.org/" >East Bay Community Recovery
Project, discuss ways in which nonprofits can take advantage of
the latest technology trends to support their programs, and their
href="http://www.google.com/a/help/intl/en/admins/customers.html#gov" >
experiences with Google Apps.

The gathering also gave us the chance to announce that we're
extending the Google Apps Education Edition to registered
nonprofits in the U.S. The idea for this program extension emerged
from conversations we had with local nonprofits. We realized that
the Education Edition of Google Apps, our hosted suite of
communication and collaboration tools — free for educational
institutions — fits well with the vital need among nonprofits for
easy-to-use, flexible technologies requiring little or no
investment. We hope such features as email migration, 24/7
assistance and integration APIs, in addition to the standard email,
calendaring and online document collaboration tools will enable
nonprofits to worry less about technology and focus more on
fulfilling their mission — in whatever field of advocacy, policy,
civil, social or environmental welfare (to name a few) they may
be.

We're always looking for ways in which the technologies we
develop can support education and action on the range of global and
local issues affecting our world. href="http://www.google.com/a/npo" >Find out more about Google

With more than 200 million downloads and counting, Google Earth is
known around the world. Less well-known is our href="http://earth.google.com/earth_enterprise.html"
>Google Earth Enterprise which
companies, organizations and government agencies use to view their
global data and imagery. Experts and amateurs alike use it for
everything from designing new buildings to exploring for energy to
responding to emergencies, because Google Earth Enterprise offers
access to geospatial info that was once limited to specialty
applications.

For instance, check out Dell's implementation showing a
geographic view of traffic to Dell.com:

Today, we're releasing the latest version, which makes it easy
to publish and view Google Earth datasets in 2D using a browser. By
accessing Google Earth Enterprise from a web browser, employees
across an organization will benefit from the rich geographic
tapestry. There's href="http://google-latlong.blogspot.com/2007/07/newest-google-earth-enterprise.html" >
