I see Danah's blatant groveling and raise to shameless promotion.
MY book, "The LAST Virtual Volunteering Guidebook", was just published
last week. It's available through Energize, Inc., the largest publisher
of volunteerism-related books.
http://www.energizeinc.com/store/1-222-E-1
My co-author and I wrote it not only to help introduce the concept of
virtual volunteering, in all its forms - crowdsourcing, micro
volunteering, ementoring, etc. - to organizations, but also, to help
organizations already engaging with online volunteers, to improve and
expand their virtual volunteering activities, including activities
related to Liberationtech's focus on tech, democracy, freedom, human
rights and development.
In conjunction with the revised guidebook is the Virtual Volunteering
Wiki, a free online resource and collaborative space for sharing
resources regarding virtual volunteering.
http://virtualvolunteering.wikispaces.com
Even if you don't buy the book, have a look at the wiki - I've toyed
with the idea of creating a section specifically on online volunteers in
advocacy work - even if it just links to what's already out there. So if
you have suggestions, lay them on me.
Danah said "Fingers crossed that y'all will find it useful and
interesting."
Same for me. (And Danah, I'll be buying your book, FYI, because teen
use of the Internet is of huge interest to me).
And I see Danah's hug and I give a KISS. On the MOUTH.
