Last week I helped (mostly by nodding) 80n and Andy Robinson put together a stellar OpenStreetMap NetSquared application. NetSquared is offering funding to 20 social change organizations to help them build and accelerate their projects. The OSM application is for kicking off serious efforts building a community in North America and importing the huge amounts of TIGER/Line data into the OSM database.

You can vote - and should! In fact, you're require required to vote for at least 5 projects, and there are a lot of great ones. You should go and vote and help other great projects get the funding they need to do great things.

• You must be a registered NetSquared user to vote. If you are not registered, please register now.
• You must be logged in to vote.
• Each user must vote for a minimum of 5 projects and a maximum of 10 projects. You must vote for at least 5 different projects for your ballot to be counted. Ballots with multiple votes for the same project will be discarded.
• Each registered user can only vote once. You can update your ballot anytime before the final deadline - Saturday, April 14th at 12 noon PDT.
