We all talk about information overload. Give me tools, like Yahoo Pipes , or other kinds of things, that help me to whittle down the information I’m taking in – make it more useful, help me find things faster and easier. And then there is data. I love my friends and colleagues. I need less, and better data, not more.

Staff have to receive emotionally engaging information they would feel inspired to share with their community. Amplifying those efforts online by embracing the resources and networks of the entire organization is just one piece of the community-building puzzle. Staff have to see a payback or reason to get engaged themselves.

But should the organization as a whole put resources into a “twitter strategy&# ? I’d be really hard pressed to suggest that they spend much of their meager resources on that. Should they spend a bit of time tying their RSS feed (if they have one) to a twitter account? Sure, why not. Or even a social network strategy?

Most often nonprofits want to capture information from web users. That sort of information could be a newsletter sign up, a contact form that should be responded to, an online donation or an event registration. One purpose is to allow users to modify their own information (if the site allows logins.) All-in-one.
