Tech in the Commons is less than a month away.

To prepare for the four-part tech tools bootcamp for nonprofits, we wanted to dive deep into the topics to be covered by the series: augmented and virtual reality (April 28), data storytelling (May 2), live video (May 9) and social communication trends (May 16).

Here are the articles and reports we’re reading now.
