How Nonprofits Can Use and Build Online Social Networks: Change.org and Ning at Net Tuesday

If you're interested in social networks for engagement with nonprofits, you will also want to see http://www.ChangingThePresent.org.

Unlike the site named above, which just uses an org domain, this one really is a nonprofit.

It also charges a much lower transaction fee (just 3% and 30 cents, compared to 4.5%).

And it offers wish lists, tangible donation opportunities, registries, recognition, the expertise of a stellar board of advisors, greeting cards, and more.

Nice. Loving it. Any more of this stuff, please send it through to me. I'm in town for 5 weeks!!

if anyone is a resident, or fan of, the north beach neighborhood in SF, i started a ning site: http://www.northbeachnik.org that needs members! I just moved to the 'hood and would love to meet other people close by! We also have an upcoming group called "northbeachnik"

The last time I was in San Francisco, I was seven and accidentally fell in a fountain. I'm hoping my return trip will be just as thrilling, but less pungent. I'm excited to attend Net Tuesday--there's nothing quite like it in Seattle. Here's what I'm doing up north: http://www.knowledgeaspower.org
