A recent series from the popular Read/WriteWeb blog provides a great overview of best practices and resources for nonprofits in using the web, including Facebook and MySpace. I couldn't find links to all of the articles listed in one place, so I've gathered them below. (And don't forget to read the comments to these posts--they also have lots of good info):
nonprofits, nota bene: This series would be helpful to any group of nonprofit staff members and volunteers considering ways to use the web more effectively. If your organization has hired a web designer or consultant who is not totally familiar with web strategies for nonprofits, you may want to forward this article to him or her.
Know some nontechie nonprofit leaders? This blog, studio 501c, is just for them -– the ones who are brilliant and busy and who want to use the web more effectively to promote their nonprofit but who don’t know where to start. Use the "email this" button below to tell them about studio 501c. Don’t forget to add that they can sign up to get updates via email. Thanks!
Hi there .. just discovering the pointer to my piece on read/write web and realizing that you haven't been blogging much. Hope you are well and get back to the blogging! Miss you!
