Demo 2008: Good2Gether Uses Social Technology to Help Nonprofits | Epicenter from Wired.com

Demo 2008: Good2Gether Uses Social Technology to Help Nonprofits | Epicenter from Wired.com: "Founder Gregory McHale came up with the idea for Good2Gether while looking up information on Hurricane Katrina. He thought that the newspaper reports detailing the chaos would be more useful if they included links to appropriate nonprofits who were working to solve the crisis. He created a widget which scans the text of an article and finds relevant nonprofits, then targets the results to the reader's geographic location (based on IP address), so that the reader has easy access to nonprofits in his or her local community."
