Helpful Sites

What's in your drop down window? It's almost a diagnostic question isn't it? In no particular order these are some of the helpful websites I have stumbled on. (Most are work related and some are not.)
www.boardsource.org (Helpful nonprofit info.)
www.grantstation.com (More nonprofit info. Here you can actually see the 990's of other organizations.)
www.MTCoH.org (Home to all things about Homelessness in Montana. I suggest downloading the annual report titled "Homeless in Montana")
www.discoveringmontana.com (Our state website. Here you can get tons of info about Montana. You can also access offender info. Check out the Correctional Offender Network, I think all felonies in Montana are listed.)
www.geocaching.com (A fun pastime for people with GPS units.)
www.guidestar.org (More info for the nonprofit world.)
www.ourfactsyourfuture.mt.gov (This is the collaboration of the economic geography department of Montana. It is a great way to stay in touch with the economic climate of your area.)
www.propertydisposal.gsa.gov (The government giving away unused items and properties.)
www.monsterwatchitgo.com (Here you can read several reports of sightings of the famous Flathead Lake Monster. Did I just feel something bump my foot?)
www.flatheadhealth.org (The website for the Flathead County Health Department. You can also get info about the reduced cost medical clinic there called the Flathead Community Health Center.
www.meetomatic.com (This is helpful if you are trying to wrangle a bunch of people with very different schedules to the same place at the same time.)
www.swivel.com (Fact based graphs and displays that are helpful templates to start with. Caveat though because the info is open source.)
www.shutterfly.com (Fun art projects and other stuff.)
www.hurwitassociates.com (Nonprofit Law)
http://flathead.mt.gov/gis (An interactive map of Flathead County where you can learn all kinds of info, for example, try looking up your own address. I know, scary huh?)
