The Business of Giving

Have you checked out the Seattle Time's "Business of Giving" blog? The tagline is, "Exploring philanthropy, non-profits and socially motivated business, from the Gates Foundation to your donation. A fresh look at the economy of good intentions."

Since nine out of the last twenty blog entries are focused on activity and movements at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, it made me wonder, "what about the foundations in between?" Although it's interesting to be able to track who is leaving and who is joining the Gates Foundation, some of the most compelling stories in the philanthropic sector aren't happening at the largest foundation in the world.

What do you think? Do you read The Business of Giving? What stories would you like to see on their blog?
