I prefer listserves over online forums and email to IM. And I don't like having to look at a web page/feed reader every day to find out whether anything new has appeared on an RSS feed. I also think that www.feedburner.com (now owned by Google) will do this, but I found the instructions impenetrable.

And, Google documents allows you export and import pretty easily without too much reformating hell. It's the same kind of impatience I feel reading email from listservs -- only because my RSS reader makes scanning and reading a lot of information very eficient. I'm not going to ditch email or listservs anytime soon.

RSS Feeds: Add an RSS feed to your blog and news sections so people visiting your site can subscribe to your feed and stay updated on your nonprofits latest news. I like Google Feedburner because it gives visitors a choice to subscribe via RSS or email. I have also ranked them from easy to moderate to time consuming.

From time to time I will pull up a user profile to monitor what folks are doing in Salesforce since I have feeds turned on for Accounts and Opportunities, but that's about it. We have a couple of email listservs on Google Groups of our top-tier advocates that we've been interested in migrating to an online community.

Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

JANUARY 20, 2007

I've been doing Internet skills training workshops since 1995 and way back when I used to do one called "Digital Literacy" which was all about how to use email, listservs, and Internet search functions. I started off with 5 blog feeds and as I discovered other blogs or resources, I added them gradually.

The tools include Google Analytics, PostRank, Feedburner, and others. On a listserv the other day, Laura Quinn at Idealware asked if "Visit" or "Click" data on Feedburner were useful metrics to track to assess reader interest in your blog content. Jay Dedman pointed to an analysis Feedburner by Chris Baskind. But all is not well.
