I've mentioned TechSoup here before. If you are a non-profit, you can get huge deals on all sorts of technology tools, from long lists of equipment and software to very useful webinars. Membership is free. Once you sign up, TechSoup checks your credentials, and you are good to go.
This week, TechsSoup is offering four seminars, two of which might be of interest to you writers out there or, perhaps, to your students.
