Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

JANUARY 8, 2008

While there has been some excellent conversations in the past fews months, particularly the Netsquared ThinkTank , I haven't seen a lot of nonprofit case studies that share real life experience with measuring results from social media strategies. So for my panel, I thought why not a case study slam, a play on the poetry slam format.

What’s important to note here is that unlike wiki or websites, the direct forms of content creation, with Ushahidi citizens only needed to know the number to which they send reports from their phone.

I asked him afterwards if he knew of any case studies or saw any potential for using LinkedIn for Good, which launched last year with much buzz but seems like nothing but tumbleweeds rolling by since. Beth pointed out a great study on blogging ROI from Forrester.

In 2001, I started at the Digital Media Studies Masters program at the University of Denver. I remember being shocked when I got slides of artwork in the mail to scan. The Second Life educational wiki is chock-full of information. Unfortunately, that company went under pretty quickly and when I graduated I joined Borders Online.
