Help Me Obtain Funding for Online Mapping of the Recovery
Business Funding 823-248-4474 by Alan Gutierrez.
I’ve applied for a grant to fund the continued development of maps at Think New Orleans. I need your help.
The grant is through a nonprofit that focuses on the Internet. The nonprofit is called NetSquared. They have a submission process where you post your submission online. They award the grant based on votes.
I need you to please vote for my project.
How to Vote for the Project
It is not as easy as it could be, so here’s the run down.
- Join the NetSquared website - You need to register before you vote. Go to the registration page and register.
- Wait for Approval - A moderator ensures that you’re not an auto-voting robot.
- Leave stars and comments - Leave a bunch of stars and comments on the project entitled City Of New Orleans: A Mashup For Citizen Monitoring Of The Recovery.
The voting hasn’t started yet, you see. But, I’d like you to get registered and I’d like to you leave comments.
The best thing that you could do now, is to leave a comment. Ask for more features. Tell me what you think of the issue. Give me feedback on the grant.
The more comments the proposal receives the better. Comments show an interest in the project, because it will encourage votes.
Grant Details
The grant is really a prize. You can read about it at N2Y3 Mashup Challenge. Ignore the jargon.
From what I can tell, they’ll give a prize at an awards seminar. I’ll be working on web enabled maps for the recovery regardless. A cash prize only makes life easier.

I’m just waiting on my confirmation.
I think you’ve got a great chance of getting this Alan. Looking through some of the past winners, I think a New Orleans mapping project would be an ideal candidate. Let us know when voting opens and I’ll help put the word out.
