Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

NOVEMBER 17, 2010

I started the social culture discussion with a story describing an Twitter and board meeting experiment I did back in 2008. I dreamed up some scenarios of boards and social media in practice based on my experience in 2008. Part of the meeting featured the students themselves sharing how they used these tools.

Aesthetics of Experience: Photo-taking is distracting for other visitors. Looking at artwork through a lens means you are having a less rich experience.

Like Google buying YouTube , or Yahoo buying flickr. Perhaps one day we’ll get there, but in my 15+ year experience, the level of tech resources in non-profits have stayed the same, and I don’t think it’s likely to change. In the end, I think it’s always better to focus on core competencies.
