Resource Round-up for March

Our resource round-up for March includes a how-to for creating forms and integrating them with Google Checkout, a NTEN conference preview and interview with a Google Grants team member, a SEM's take on changes to the Grants program and a special report on how non-profits are handling economic hardships. And don't forget to check back tomorrow for a video from our own Hal Varian where he talks about how the ad auction system works.

Learn how to create forms and integrate them with Google Checkout as a Google Grantee. Formspring offers a discount to non-profits for creating a variety of forms for use online.

Get an NTEN Conference preview and listen to an interview with Google Grants' own, Kristie Ferketich, in a recent post from Holly on NTEN's blog.

A search marketer from the blogosphere gives their take on the recent changes to the Google Grants process from an SEM's perspective.

Check out the line-up for NTEN's 2009 conference featuring seminars covering topics from social media and online outreach to wiki pages and changes in volunteerism.

Set aside a few minutes to read through a special report compiled by The Chronicle of Philanthropy that brings together articles, discussions and statistics that speak to the ways non-profits are coping with hard economic times. 

Come back tomorrow to get a quick and meaningful explanation of the ad auction system presented by Google's Chief of Economics, Hal Varian.
