Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

JULY 13, 2008

Are "the best" or "most influential" lists of bloggers a good thing or a bad thing? I rather not have a list, but get to know them one-by-one - and these interviews are a way of doing that. But in the last month, I've come across three "best of" type women blogger lists. What metaphor would you use?

Have Fun - Do Good

MARCH 7, 2011

The fifth guest blogger in my Have Fun, Do Good series is Emily Goligoski. Waste of time , I would think to myself. While interviewing the organizers for a magazine, I heard how they worked with young women who had rarely or never felt good about their bodies and were in detention on charges related to prostitution and drug sales.

Find more videos like this on Internet Time. Later that summer, I had the honor of being interviewed by Ponzi at BlogHer. I also have to say that having Chris's mom do such a fabulous job of time tracking helped me end on time (I wish we could clone her for every conference on the planet.)

In the interview, Cami mentions that she is writing a book about the 29 Day Giving Challenge. I was broke. I was too sick to work.

I realize that finding the time to experiment for many of us can be difficult, especially if those experiments do not lead to direct outcomes. It takes some action learning, small focused experiments where you track, evaluate, and learn from before investing more time and effort. Make it fun. There's lots of examples in this blog.

You don't necessarily see women keynote at technology conferences (well accept for women focused technology conferences like blogher ), but Geoff was trying hard ensure a gender balanced program and succeeded.

Looks other nptech bloggers and social networks are supporting this effort too! Hats off to Lisa, Jory, and Elisa (as well as to my fellow BlogHer CE editors) for posting such brilliant thoughts about this topic. When you see someone inappropriately attacking another blogger either on comments on or a blog, say something!

My friend Michelle Murraine took me to task for the presumption that all coders are male in the pronoun choice in my last post, How does a programmer spend his time? To atone, here's a set of links for this week, all from female bloggers. Recently she interviewed Laura Allen , who runs a consultancy called 15second pitch.

So, I thought it would be great to interview her and learn why she was successful. Most of my life has been spent roaming around nomadically.I've moved 33 times in just 28 years and have a resume that would make any sane HR person laugh hysterically.

I asked four of the women who I had previously interviewed for the Big Vision Podcast to share what brought them to their work, and their advice for the graduate and undergraduate women who attended the conference. I hope you'll take the time to read it, because they all have some great advice.
