More New Articles: Open Source, and Broadcast Emails

It's an orgy of new articles! First up, we have Open Source vs. Vendor-Provided Software: Comparing Them Side by Side. Jeff Walpole of Phase 2 Technology looks at some of the ways that open source and vendor provided commercial software differ, and how they're similar. This turned out to be a really hard topic (while there are important differences, it's difficult to talk about them without turning to generalities). Let me know what you think!

And then, an old standby - we've updated our A Few Good Broadcast Email Tools article (formerly eNews Tools), which is one of the most popular articles on the site. There's been a number of new developments in this area, so we've added some discussion of VerticalResponse's free offer for nonprofits, and Network for Good's new partnership with Emma, among other updates.

Enjoy!
