it's been a very long road. two years ago, this site started off as a civicspace distribution of drupal. it was my first foray into the reverberations of the 2004 presidential election. collectively, our paths have grown, and the past two years have brought out quite a bit of change.

This weekend, Civicspace on Demand (CSoD) launched. For $50 bucks a month you get a "complete, integrated solution for your community website, online donations, blast email, and supporter database needs." If you thought Drupal and CiviCRM were too complicated, think again. CSoD has spent the past two years, rethinking the layout and workflow. Instead of harvesting the open-source community, they have spent a considerable about of time providing feedback and improvements to the community.

For the next 30-days, you get a complete community solution featuring the following bells and whistles! Grab the PDF.
