IMHO, it is important for us to try to keep our blog fresh, so that we have lots of content to give potential donors a view into what we are doing. </div>

We could really use help in establishing and<br>
maintaining relationships with all of our sites as described on our<br>
website. <a href="http://partimus.org/projects.php" target="_blank">http://partimus.org/projects.php</a><br>
<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yeah, I think we need to do an outreach push among the LUGs to get people to "adopt" schools. I think we need to increase our volunteer base. </div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
For the more visually inclined here is a map of the sites we support.<br>
Especially if you live near by and would like to help please let us<br>
know.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>This map is great! Thanks! I will blog about this by Monday. I just put up a post yesterday, so I don't want to crowd too much stuff together. I will also tweet about this map. </div>

<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>I am going to tweet about my blog yesterday, and I would be grateful if everyone could retweet it to get up attention for our blog. We have at least five active tweeters on this list (Grant, Elizabeth, Beth Lynn, myself, plus the Partimus Tweet / Identi.ca page) and so that is a good start on increasing our visibility and increasing traffic to our website. Thanks either way! </div>
