Uneasy Rhetoric

First, I will be taking a short blogging vacation and intend to be back in the blogosphere early next year. So, no developers better announce any new Sacramento projects in the next few weeks, m’kay?

If you’re dying to contact me or name your first child “Uneasy,” my email address is on the Rationale page, spelled out for you. I will try to talk you out of it, because I’m a nice guy like that.

Second, before I go, I have a question to ask in a vain attempt for linkage and comment whoring.

It is standard business practice to send out holiday cards to your customers and key vendors (often, this comes with gifts like bottles of wine or chocolate). Politicians sometimes send cards to key supporters. Some nonprofit organizations also send out holiday cards to donors, foundation funders, and the like. For example, I just received one from an organization I donated to this year. It was part of a solicitation, but frequently, they are just a “happy holidays” card.

My question is, should nonprofits be sending out holiday cards to any portion of their constituencies?

I’ll post my own thoughts in the new year.

Happy New Year, Peace, and Goodwill à tous.
