Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

MARCH 14, 2012

Note from Beth: I’m hosting a small army of guest bloggers, grantmakers, who are attending the GeoFunders National Conference taking place this week in Seattle. It’s almost Spring and a thousand theories of change are blooming like the cherry trees in Washington, DC. The Outcome of Our Outcomes – guest post by Victoria Vrana.

I've been enjoying a few blissful weeks at home but am now hitting the road for a series of conferences and work trips, and I wanted to let you know where I'll be if you want to meet up or come to an event. Many of the talks are related to The Participatory Museum and I will have books for sale on all of these forays.

It is my hope, my prayer that I can use these god given communication skills, our not so new world of participatory media, and make green something so compelling that it cannot help but become an all powerful movement. Valeria Maltoni wrote a great post with the same title featuring ten tips on creating movements just two days ago.

If you can’t attend the conference, you can read my paper on this topic and play along at home. There are also lots of other great papers from the conference; my favorites so far are the evaluation report on the impact of the Wolfquest game and conversational learning on the Science Buzz blog.

John Kenyon was also at the LASA Circuit Riders Conference in Birmingham with me earlier this month. The NTC Conference is a little more than two months away and I'm really looking forward to conversations with colleagues and meeting others face-to-face for the first time. Where do I find more information?

Last week Washington played host to a few events of note for folks interested in government and social media (aka Web 2.0, the Internets, etc.). On Wednesday, The U.S. State Department hosted the first government TED event: TED@State. in Government.

I applied to work for This American Life (rejected) and in the meantime fell in love with someone who lived in Washington D.C. The blog started with a conference experience. I'd been attending conferences like ASTC for a couple of years and had mostly been incredibly shy. So I packed up and moved down the East Coast.

in the Spring of 2008 at an Innovations in Journalism conference, I thought, this is going to be big. The other two things that happened was that I started working a lot in participatory journalism. I'm a big believer in participatory journalism, or citizen journalism, whatever you want to call it.
