* The Gilbert Center, a Seattle organization that provides technology help to charities, has created an e-mail discussion list on topics related to non-profit “intranets” — private, internal computer networks that can be used only by people associated with a particular organization. “Extranets,” which allow members of related organizations and others to have access to such networks, will also be discussed. To subscribe, send an e-mail message to autoshare@gilbert.org. In the body of the message, type the words: subscribe intranet.
