That's a good point. My brother -- who until recently ran a small non-profit -- last year had a grant to build a new website and put out a RFP to a bunch of local and national design firms. I think at times he was overwhelmed with the responses and utilized me to sort through them. I spent a good deal of time going over the proposals with him and helping him understand the differences between WordPress and Drupal and PHP vs. Ruby and what sort of features he actually needed on his organization's new website.

In the end he told me that I could probably make a living doing consulting like that strictly for non-profits. There is definitely a need for that sort of guidance.

I think that's where orgs like NTEN can help, and maybe this site could also act as an information clearing house and community for those on the non-profit side to learn about what sort of technologies are available, what they need, what's possible, and how to get it done.
