I just wanted to send a reminder about the Social Networking discussion tomorrow and Thursday.
Join us on TechSoup, April 19th and 20th, for a free, two-day online event at: http://www.techsoup.org/socialnetwork This event will be an asynchronous discussion that will occur in the TechSoup.org forums. It will be hosted by Chris Law, co-founder of Tribe.net, Neal Gorenflo, Director of Business Development of Care2Connect.com, Alex Mouldovan, founder of CrowdFactory.com and John Lorance, Associate Director of CompuMentor's TechCommons program, and will feature representatives from LinkedIn.com, Gather.com, and others. We all love social networking applications like Friendster, Tribe, Linked in, My Space and Frappr, however, most of us have little time to use these in our personal lives, let alone to create an organizational profile for our nonprofit. Is there a use for social networking applications in the nonprofit workplace? * What do we mean by Social Networking applications? * How are these different form message-board based online communities? * Getting discovered: How do you promote your organization's services through a social networking application? * How can an online social network help your organization find volunteers and raise funds? * What is the secret to fostering and managing your online social network? You will come away with practical tips, models, resources, and tools for bringing the collaborative technologies of social networking applications to your own organization. We hope to see you there! Please feel free to forward this announcement on to your friends and colleagues.
