Wow! I don’t know how you do it – but thank you again for this wonderful & thorough post! Some comments…

Thank you @RobCottingham (http://twitter.com/RobCottingham) for the super timely tip about the Barack Obama page coming close to 1 million! Yay!

Also – I’m a huge fan of widgets, too

It’s so cool to see how many folks are working on such awesome projects locally!

Super kudos to Vancouver-driven projects such as GiveMeaning.com, HappyFrog.ca, NothingButNets.net, and ChangeEverything.ca – all of which I would have loved to spend more time talking about!

The September Net Tuesday (not the July event, which is here – http://netsquared.meetup.com/15/calendar/7917663) – will be about showcasing nonprofits, dev houses, and social change startups doing wild things with the web for good. Please email me at joe@engagejoe.com if you’re interested in showing off your stuff!

Thanks again everyone for such a wonderful evening!
