OCTOBER 7, 2007

Many blogHers, like Rebeca at the Razoo blog , went red on Thursday as part of Free Burma: International Bloggers Day.    I've gotten to the point where I avoid pink ribbon madness for corporate profit as Suzanne Reisman describes it.    But, on Friday, my blog turned from red to pink!

Provide a link to a page with bios for bloggers. If your blogging platform doesn't allow you to do that, have bloggers include a one-line bio at the end of their posts. Link to other bloggers Use Google Blog Search , Alltop and Technorati to find blogs that write about similar topics to yours. Don't be afraid of white space.

I interviewed Tuesday Gutierrez from SaveGuimaras over at blogher. The only difficulty I find here is that SaveGuimaras is not a non-profit org and is simply running as a webblog therefore, mobile networks might not trust us enough to collaborate with us.

To atone, here's a set of links for this week, all from female bloggers. The on-line discussion brought together some of the larger software vendors in the non-profit space and a few very savvy users. Beth Kanter is one of my favorite bloggers, in part because she so often does interviews of very interesting people in her postings.

That’s the area that all organizations – and very specifically, non-profit organizations – will be working through in the coming years. I think it was 2006 when the entire room of 1400 bloggers burst into spontaneous singing of this song at BlogHer. We need to think about the interfaces that can connect one to the other.

you know, as a person you can bring your values into a profit-making business. When Sophia contacted me and asked if I would talk here, my first thought was, "You know, I could talk here, but I just know so many amazing women who have stories that I want to share." What I do is, I write for several blogs, as she mentioned.
