APRIL 30, 2009

Last Sunday at NTEN's Nonprofit Technology Conference, I facilitated a meetup for Changebloggers: Blogging, Podcasting and Vlogging for Good. My favorite story came from an organization who had a frequent, angry commenter who disagreed with their cause. They engaged with him, and in the end he became a member of their organization.
