We're back. We've retooled a bit, and done some thinking about what we want this blog to be. After having a pretty loose focus [like a three-year-old in a sandbox with 30 toys], we've decided we really want to focus on the public face of institutional philanthropy and private foundations. What do they do well and what can they do better, particularly when it comes to advocating for the issues they care about? Of course, we'll retain the right to occasionally divert to other related topics. Thanks to those of you who payed attention to Philanthropybeat ver.1. We hope the next iteration will be a meaningful reentry into the ongoing dialogue about philanthropy occuring in blogworld.
