SOCIAL: Blogging Questions

[Adrian Cotter]

1. Wordpress is great and my favorite blogging tool at this point.  
There are other choices, but if you think it works for you - stick to  
it.

2. I don't have direct experience, but you might want to check out  
various non profit tech sites for articles: NTEN is one. Could  
probably find plenty of articles just by googling.
