Nonprofit Tech for Good

DECEMBER 2, 2009

When I first started myspace.com/nonprofitorganizations almost 4 years ago I had no idea that it would evolve to become as large as it has, or that the brand/community/concept would spread to Facebook , then YouTube , and now Twitter.

What I like: I like reading Ed’s perspectives on organizations, how they work, and the kinds of strategies and approaches that are around to work within organizations.

It is an internal assessment tool which helps organizations figure out what parts of their online strategy are working, and what parts might need tweaking.

Look at what kinds of things you can do to your website, for instance, to create RSS feeds for new content, instead of thinking of starting a blog. I think it might be better not to start at all. But it does require a lot of thought. Look at what organizations like yours are doing. 1 comment… read it below or add one } 1 Beth 09.28.06
