March 2011 Community Builder Chat Archive (#CommBuild)

We just wrapped up another rousing Community Builder chat – I’m always so energized and inspired by these chats and thankful for all those that participate and share.

Get the full archive here!

This month’s chat focused mainly on sharing lessons and examples from the 2011 Nonprofit Technology Conference, which took place in Washington, DC, last week. Some of the topics from the chat include:

  • Engaging specific ethnic groups/communities
  • Using content to fuel community engagement
  • Engagement for advocacy vs non-advocacy organizations
  • Hyper-local communities
  • Contests to encourage content sharing
  • Social media in CRMs

It was a rich conversation, so I haven’t tried to pull out specific quotes. You can read through the full archive here.
