• Second Place ($15,000) —  KnowMore.Org Firefox Extension - Get Alerts Of Corporate Abuses When You Visit Company/Brand/Product Websites
• Third Place ($10,000) — A Mashup Of 29+ Social Action Platforms — Social Actions

Additionally, there were two winners announced for the Case Foundation DonateNow Mashup Challenge:

• Social Actions — Find Social Actions. Create Social Change. (Also a NetSquared winner.)
• Tweet4Good — Donate a fundraise using Twitter

You can check out videos from the conference from Beth Kanter, and the NetSquared blog will no doubt have writeups in the coming hours and days.

Stay tuned for next Tuesday’s Meetup, where Seth and Ivan will present highlights from the conference and useful tools that other nonprofits can use!
