Last week, I received an email from Ashley Gatewood of MissionFish.org saying, in part: Since the holidays are now over, we’re encouraging people to consider regifting items they received but don’t have a use for by selling them on eBay and donating the sale to a nonprofit. It can also be a great way for people who got a new item, like a digital camera, to turn the older model into funds for their favorite cause.

Pam Ashlund of the Nonprofit Eye Blog has a new posting about " the Temporality of Digital Knowledge " - the notion that for all the wonderful online information we have at our fingertips, the idea that the Internet is a permanent repository of information is a false one.
