As an iPhone user, I personally would love to download the Apps of my favorite nonprofits and have their avatars displayed on my iPhone. A quick search of the term “nonprofit&# in the iTunes App store returns less than 50 Apps, and most of those are miscategorized Apps. 2010 will be a big year for nonprofits and iPhone Apps.

Ensure that when potential new followers land on your Facebook Page, the design of your cover photo and your avatar is visually compelling. It’s for this reason that your avatar should be well-designed, not include text that is too small to read in the News Feed, or show any obvious errors in cropping.
