Nonprofit Tech for Good

DECEMBER 2, 2009

As I spent the Thanksgiving weekend pondering gratitude, MySpace made the top of my list of things to be grateful for. If it were not for MySpace, my professional life no doubt would be much less fulfilling. And for that, I will be eternally grateful to MySpace and the “Nonprofit Organizations&# MySpace community.

With the rise of MySpace and Facebook , it will only be a matter of time before there are Facebook consultants who can develop and implement a comprehensive Facebook strategy for organizations and campaigns.

Imagine a typical Internet surfer and your first thought might be of a teen or young adult, not a grandparent or retiree. Social isolation can result in reduced quality of life, depression and even alcohol or drug abuse.

Simplistic appeals targeted at teens and college students don't. As a result, your nonprofit will get a sense of how many of your supporters are following you online, and to what extent you can count on them to act on your behalf. In this medium, openness, responsiveness, and inquisitiveness serve your cause well.
