AUGUST 12, 2011

Last week I spoke at BlogHer '11, a gathering of over 3,000 women bloggers. Below are some of the ideas, events and people that have stayed with me this week: 1. I took pages and pages of notes, but I particularly liked their words of wisdom for people (like me!) You can serve more people if you are fueling your work with funds.

I know more and more people are using calendars on their computers and cell phones, but I like paper calendars. If you haven't purchased your 2010 calendar yet (or are looking for a last minute holiday gift), lots of nonprofits publish calendars. Cross-posted from BlogHer.com.

Zen and the Art of Nonprofit Technology

MARCH 19, 2007

I got to be a geek, and feel like I was really making a difference in the workings of organizations, and, hopefully, in people’s lives. I want to more directly work with people and organizations, primarily focused around faith and spirituality. I want to see people’s real faces, and hear their real voices.

As I mentioned in my post, Community, Beauty, Party, Wisdom: More Reverb 10 Reflections , one of the highlights of 2010 was organizing a virtual social change book club. A few people have asked me how to organize their own virtual book club, so I thought I'd share the process with you. Keep asking people if they'd like to join.

Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

OCTOBER 19, 2010

Last week, I parachuted into BlogWorld 2010 in Las Vegas for less than 24 hours. I presented on two panels (How Nonprofits Use Twitter and CrowdSourced Philanthropy) in the Cause Track curated by Chris Noble and the good folks at WhatGives. Did get one party hosted by Carwoo and organized by Renee Blodgett who I met a BlogHer in 2005.
