The Buzz: We're All Connected Edition

Here in the Blackbaud Community, we always have an interest in teaching our users how to get the best out of their community experience.  And the best way to have a great experience is by connecting with other users here.  Because we are considered a peer-to-peer community, that means that the primary focus of your time here is to get helpful answers and connections with other community members.  Yes, from time to time Blackbaud employees will step in to help when necessary, but we like to sit back and help you make the right connections when you're looking for help.  Our fearless leader here in the Blackbaud Community, Crystal Bruce, has penned a helpful article designed towards this goal; CONNECTION.
