Thanks, Dan. This is helpful. If we go this route, I hope we will have as much luck as your organization. We're actually opening a new 25-unit townhouse development next month that will be smoke-free from day 1. With our existing properties, howeve…

We switched an existing Senior facility to non-smoking in 2009; that was a little tough at first but has turned out well. We seem to have more folks interested in being on the waiting list. And we opened a new senior complex last year as non-smoking…

Happy to help Will. I just asked TAL to review e-democracy as well.

Thanks, Leo. I just saw your e-democracy.org Tweet and am looking forward to learning more about it. Will also check out NeighborForNeighbors and Talk About Local. Thanks for the suggestions!

Leo Romero replied to Will Stewart's discussion 'Connecting with multifamily residents through social media'
Some other options, in case you haven't already checked them out: e-democracy.org (mainly email based, not as flashy as ning & others, but high participation rates; run by Ashoka Fellow Steven Clift) NeighborsForNeighbors (Joseph Porcelli's brainch…

Well, so much for my idea to expand the NeighborWorks Greater Manchester Ning network. As you may have heard, Ning is phasing out its free service and, come July, all current Ning creators will have 30 days to transition to one of the paid options o…

Marcia Nedland replied to Boykin Clarke's discussion 'Finding Potential Buyers of NSP Homes'
