look forward to her thoughts on the big picture around this web trend and hope she will post a follow up and others will share their insights in the comments below. In addition to checking back in on what nonprofits are doing now that Sprout Builder is moving to an enterprise level application only, I started thinking about some of the possible uses and options for viral or "moveable" widgets that nonprofits are likely to see as helpful. Why use widgets anyhow? I'd like to thank new Idealware blogger Debra Askanase for the inspiration for this post, which actually take from her idea for a post around fundraising and advocacy widgets, and which she graciously let me run with due to my slight obsession with widgets.

There is just so much information and people need help in identifying good sources and pulling it all together, something librarians do very well. Joyce helps students develop "personal information portals" using tools like iGoogle PageFlake s and NetVibes. These can be shared with others via email, IM, etc. Joyce Valenza is a librarian rockstar who also happens to be the head librarian at my daughter's high school. A recent post she wrote for the School Library Journal on strategies for teaching and using social media showed up in my Twitter feed the other day.

Lalithia had a case study that hit on the key levels of engagement: shared measurement systems; comparative performance measurement and a baked in learning process. Now, I wholly subscribe to the notion that you will never get anywhere if you can't see where you're going, so I appreciate how Steve and crew articulated that this vision of shared outcomes is more than just a way to report to our funders; it's also a tool that will help us learn and improve our strategies. At the recent Nonprofit Technology Conference , I attended a somewhat misleadingly titled session called " Cloud Computing: More than just IT plumbing in the sky ".

When sending out an invitation, it’s important to remember that the language you use needs to be appropriate for those you’re inviting, as well as to their audience as they could easily repurpose the language or calls to action you use to more quickly and easily share/spread the campaign. Subject: Help wish Beth Kanter a happy 53rd!
Yesterday was a very exciting day: we threw a surprise party for Beth Kanter online! It was a bit of fun mixed with experiment, and I think it was really successful.

Last week, I discussed sharing research with Google Reade r; before that, filtering RSS feeds with Yahoo! In addition to sharing feed information with applications, OPML can be used to share a group of feeds with a co-worker, friend or constituent. Wouldn't making this available be more likely to confuse than help people?" For my last followup to my RSS article, Using RSS Tools to Feed your Information Needs , I want to discuss OPML, the standard for RSS Reader feed information, and talk a bit about why RSS, which is already quite useful, is about to become an even bigger deal.

We've established that an RSS Reader helps you manage internet information far more efficiently than a web browser can; and we've talked in the last few posts about publishing feeds to your web site. This post focuses on using tools like Google Reader to share research . Out of the box, GReader (as it's affectionately known) is a powerful, web-based reader that lets you Google Reader gets a good mention in my RSS article, Using RSS Tools to Feed your Information Needs , but deserves an even deeper dive.
