Joell and I started Square Pegs thinking we could make a difference in a few lives. It's become a wonderful place to be and our new ranch in Half Moon Bay has allowed us to do so much more with our horsemanship program.
As a high-tech guy, I watch all the creative and interesting uses of the internet. And as a non-profit guy, I watch especially watch those new tech and internet efforts that try to make a difference in the world. I have lots of favorites, from TechSoup to Network for Good to Volunteer Match.
This weekend, I discovered Six Degrees. Kevin Bacon is involved in the effort and his intro video is great. The team has done a wonderful job with it, including the nicely done badge feature that allows you to declare your support on your blog or website. Check it out.
What have you found out there? what other great systems are helping people make a difference?
