As Facebook reaches 600 million users in January 2011, social media continues to attract attention from nonprofits internationally. Don’t stop there; also check Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.

Here at Network for Good, where we process donations for over 10,000 nonprofit websites and serve as the engine for many social networks (like Causes on Facebook), we see similar renewal rates -- but important differences depending on where donors give online. What about an online donor? Is he or she added to a direct mail list? Probably not.
