This next week is going to be totally crazy as I head down for New Orleans for the NTC and packed schedule. So, bear with me -- blogging may be sporadic. So, I'd like to take this opportunity to find out what's on your mind. What topics about social media and nonprofits are you most interested in? Anything you want to promote? Any feedback you wish to share?
Me again. Still trying to get fans for my page--it's slow. Trying to spread the word...trying to build the Facebook page for ArtPride. We have a long spring ahead of us to gain back nearly $6 million state dollars. All suggestions to promote arts advocacy via social networking are MOST appreciated. Good luck at the conference!

I have only just discovered your work and haven't had a time to go thru your entire site (which is incredibly useful, by the way!) so I apologise if you've already covered any or all of the below; but I'll throw these out for the sake of conversation:
a) using social media to foster and organize volunteering activities
b) using podcasts as an induction/training tool

@annemarie don't stop yet - the initial work seems like it won't pay off, but keep plugging - it takes a few months for the build up to happen. Don't get discouraged.

there's a good write up on volunteering and web2.0 from David Neff from his panel at SXSW
