<html> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> </head> <body text="" bgcolor=""> I still think it would be neat if the PTA had a free Google Apps for Nonprofits account (<a title="Google for nonprofits" href="http://www.google.com/nonprofits/">intro</a>, <a title="Google Apps for Nonprofits - Google Apps Help" href="http://support.google.com/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2858465">howto</a>). It would allow: <ul> <li>Flexibility and branding of email addresses (various @sagamorehillspta.org (or other domain) email addresses)</li> <li>More control over calendaring (wouldn't it be great for parents to subscribe to a PTA shared public calendar?)</li> <li>A place to collaborate (<a title="Google Docs in Plain English - YouTube" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRqUE6IHTEA">neat old 3 minute video explanation</a>) </li> <li>Other possibilities (<a title="[Sagamore Online] Near Term Plans" href="http://list.9.0ne.org/archive/sagamore.online/2013-March/000013.html">John's mentioned free Google ads</a>)</li> </ul> We don't need to decide to use it right now, but I think having the possibility ready is only good. Official PTA voices, what do you think? John, I think you mentioned that you could get that ball rolling if the PTA would like? </body> </html>
