Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

JULY 20, 2008

This is my fourth BlogHer Conference. I look forward to the event because it helps inspire me. With Amy's expert help, I was able to come up with a strategy for this. Amy helped me think through how to consolidate the side bar. Amy Gahran gave a writing workshop at BlogHer that was very inspiring. Great exercise.

Earlier this week, I attended SXSW in Austin, Texas and met many interesting people and connected with old friends, including BlogHer colleagues CE's Queen of Spain , Liz Perry , and Virginia DeBolt. In addition, there are several awesome bloghers that write about careers and leadership issues in the nonprofit sector that you should follow.

Yesterday, in preparation for a session I'm doing at BlogHer Boston , I created a quiz for folks to self-assess how much information overload was a factor. She wrote up a brilliant reflection on how she is changing some of her online work habits. It helps if you identify what you need to know before drinking from the fire hydrant.

I got some good feedback and will post some reflections in a bit. I bumped into Millie Garfield who shared some reflections about her "virtual" blogging friends. He gave lots of strategy advice and tips for each segment. Michelle Wolverton 's card says "How can I help you save hours in your day?"

Presenting (and putting the stream of learning into a powerpoint) is an opportunity for some reflection and storytelling and learning after the fact. To be honest, I'm sort of scared, although the session last week with Laura Fitton (Pistachio) and her advice has helped reduce some stress. Any advice to calm my nerves?

Photo by Ezster On Saturday, I attended BlogHer Boston. The networking was fabulous - meeting many new bloggers in the Boston area as well as seeing long-time blogher buddies and of course, Jory, Lisa, and Elisa. BlogHer always inspires me and this one did not fail. It was better than eating chocolate!

First I gave away money, then stuff, then advice, and then my giving became more intangible. It isn't difficult for me to care and want to help a cause, or an individual entrepreneur on Kiva , or a reader who emails me for advice. I'm sure they'll post their reflections in the week ahead. giving challenge
