While the speakers were talking, the avatars in Second Life were carrying on a lively debate in chat about the points raised, suggesting questions to be asked in the room in New York City, and passing along urls/resources related to the discussion at hand. Several avatars were also in "real life" in New York City.

That's when I was working with the New York Foundation for the Arts on its technology capacity building programs, including offline/online workshops for online skill building called SpiderSchool. A photo of meeting Jayne Cravens face-to-face after following her work for ten plus years online. So, do I use any OSN platform?

You have to try and attract new people to Facebook and your Cause. The last two weeks of the contest, Amy and 10 others worked 8-10 hours a day blogging, emailing supporters, making phone calls, and recruiting teens and college students to help them towards gathering donations for the Cause. Oh the hours!!

Museum 2.0

MARCH 28, 2008

How many times have you visited a museum site in search of a phone number or email address and woken up two hours later dizzy from the painful and ultimately unsuccessful phone system nightmare? When I read the New York Times online, each article's author's name is hotlinked and there is an easy and direct way to contact him/her.

I don't usually fist-pump while reading the New York Times. But I’d been scribbling notes for an art museum label post for awhile, and then yesterday, the NY Times had a review of a new show at MOMA, Comic Abstraction. I was at MOMA last week for the first time in their new site. The review was harsh. I loved that.

People who engage deeply in any online community, whether a bulletin board or social networking site, want to meet in person. Librarian Aaron Schmidt tells the great story of a game night of Dance, Dance, Revolution at his library in which a teen asked him: “Hey Aaron, can I go upstairs to grab a magazine and book to read?”

I also want to share some tips about how to have the best meetings and site visits with funders. And I’ve just seen we range from Florida to Alaska, California, Indiana, New York, Canada. I work with clients from mainly in New York, but also all over the country with my “All About Grant Writing” online course.

This past week, I had the opportunity to attend the Personal Democracy Forum in New York – a conference about all things digital and democracy – now in its sixth year. Submitted by Heather McLeod Grant, senior consultant at the Monitor Institute and a principal contributor to Working Wikily. How appropriate for this audience!)
