American English grammar is fraught with peril, filled with constructions, conventions, and exceptions seemingly designed to trip you up. Is it who or whom, further or farther, lie or lay? Should you use which or that, however or while, i.e. or e.g.? And let's not forget about more intimidating mistakes, the ones that sound like Spanish Inquisition-era torture devices (split infinitive, comma splice) or gross bodily functions (dangling participle, double copula).

Just when you thought the world of internet advertising could not be any more confusing, someone tosses out the term, viral marketing. This sure does sound like something your doctor should give you an injection to protect you from. I mean viral usually means infection, and illness, like the flu bug right? On the World Wide Web, viral has been used to describe computer viruses or the viral bugs that sabotage files or computer systems. Nevertheless, when it comes to internet marketing, viral is considered an infectious bug in a good way, not a harmful one.

A Web presence is critical for almost every nonprofit, but creating a Web site can be daunting. It can take a lot of time, money, and technical expertise—things that are often in short supply. And just because you have a Web site up and running doesn’t mean your work is done. You still need to keep up with maintenance, updates, and desirable new features.

An open source Content Management System (CMS) can help. Generally speaking, a CMS is a software package that lets you build a Web site that can be quickly and easily updated by your non-technical staff members. These open source systems are created and supported by a community of developers, and can be downloaded without cost. Both their feature sets and their price tags make open source systems particularly attractive to nonprofits.
