Submitted by Jordan Viator, of Connection Café

Hundreds if not thousands of online tools are available to help nonprofit organizations with online communication. But with the plethora of tools available, it can be daunting to keep up with what tools can help your nonprofit organization build a stronger web presence, become more efficient and to know just which tools are easy to start using immediately.

David J. Neff, Director of Web, Film and Interactive Strategy at the American Cancer Society High Plains Division, sat down with me for our Connection Newsletter this month and shared his top 5 recommendations for online tools for nonprofits in 2009. Amid his top picks, David harped on a few tools and sites in particular

David's top picks include:

1. Social Networks
2. Video
3. File Sharing
4. Email
5. User Experience

Have any personal favorites in the way of online tools for your nonprofit? What tools do you think will be the best and easiest for nonprofits to use in 2009?
