 Location, Dates Gist
Personal Democracy Forum May 18, NYC "If you want to learn how to optimize the use of technology in your campaigns, how to master the new media system of blogs, podcasting, mobile phones and online video; and how to raise money, move messages and impact voting more effectively, PDF is the place to be." Very focused on campaigns, electoral and otherwise.
Net Squared May 29 - 30, San Jose, CA Organized by the Tech Soup / Compumentor Folks.

 
Beyond Broadcast Feb 24, Cambridge MA  
NTC April 4-6, Washington DC Broad, vendor heavy, but a really good place to meet the tech staff of other NPOs and talk to them about the tools they need, like, etc. There are a lot of "birds of a feather" type sessions possible, so if folks are going it might be worth organizing a media /publishing one to talk about what other media organizations are using.
Penguin Day April 7, Washington DC Specifically focused on Free and Open Source Software for non-profit organizations. Worth sticking around for if you are going to NTC and interested in talking about Free Software options and opportunities.
