ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************

I mentioned several months ago that we have moved all of our email and  
collaborative programs to Google Apps.  It continues to work  
beautifully for all of our needs, and we have had zero downtime.   
Google Apps for business, of course, does not have ads, etc.

It does not have project management capabilities like Basecamp, but it  
does have all kinds of collaborative workspaces, first rate  
calendaring, great spam protection.

We still use Ning for social sites.
