Online Seminar: Small is Beautiful: Using Twitter, Flickr, Microblogging, Links, and Other Microcontent for Engagement

Announcing a new online seminar: July 8th, 2009; 12:15 - 1:45 pm (PDT) At the same time as popular commercial platforms such as Twitter and Flickr have brought attention to the fundamental power of microcontent, the inventor of the WWW and others are promoting the transformative vision of the Semantic Web. What does this mean for you and your organization when you have little enough time for the regular, everyday web? How do you navigate through the hype and tap the real opportunities for mission-fulfilling engagement? In this ninety-minute workshop, we'll show you how, including: an unambiguous method for choosing between the plethora of new "opportunities" low risk ways to stage your use of microcontent and demonstrate clear value as you do so ways to leverage and enrich your existing resources, rather than distracting from them a strategy for turning your current content flows into a rapidly growing platform for innovation introducing microcontent to lower barriers to participation through your organization the long term value of microcontent for knowledge management and learning Rather than being pulled first in one direction and then another by the hype associated with one small piece of the microcontent vision, why not ground your decisions in your own organization's mission and methods? If you think there is something to this vision and you're interested in pursuing it, then this workshop is right for you.   More Info: http://classifieds.nonprofitnews.org/clickthru/redir/528/ws/ha This Events Ad was posted: 6/18/09; 3:25:31 PM.

Online Seminar: Facing Facebook: Achieving Meaningful Success in Online Social Networks

Announcing a brand new online seminar: July 1st, 2009; 12:15 - 1:45 pm (PDT) Chances are good you are either using Facebook or are thinking about it. What proportion of that effort is money well-spent? Are you using Facebook or is it using you? We all have to face the power that Facebook derives from some very powerful network effects. The trick is to make it a tool for your communication strategies, and to not allow yourself to be made into a tool of Facebook's marketing. The key to that is the ability to apply the principles, practices, and tools that make Facebook itself successful (sometimes even using Facebook for this purpose!), and that is what we'll focus on in this workshop. This will include how to: tap your single greatest social networking resource: your current stakeholders develop clear, fact-driven (not hope or hype driven) criteria for when Facebook is useful avoid strategic and material risks of Facebook that will cost dearly in the long run design light, medium, and heavy Facebook involvement strategies use Facebook for mapping out and capturing social assets leverage your existing expertise, tools, and resources Nonprofits have been using Facebook long enough now that we are starting to outgrow the hype. If you want to take advantage of what we really know, about social networking and Facebook in particular, and if you want to make the most out of your existing resources, rather than put yourself in a position of weakness, then this workshop is right for you.   More Info: http://classifieds.nonprofitnews.org/clickthru/redir/526/ws/ha This Events Ad was posted: 6/11/09; 12:35:36 PM.
