I wanted to let you guys know about the upcoming online forums event we're having next Wed. 5/14. The official announcement is below--please pass the word along to any of your colleagues that may be interested.
Let us know here about any topics or questions you want to make sure we discuss!
Best,
Megan
********************************
Mark your calendars for TechSoup’s free day-long online event Wed. May 14th: Online Activism: Social Media Tools for Social Change in the TechSoup online forums. http://www.techsoup.org/go/socialmedia
Dive into the conversation with hosts Heather Mansfield, owner of DIOSA Communications and Online Community Manager for Change.org and Carie Lewis, Internet Marketing Manager for the Humane Society of the United States, as they explore the ins and outs of using social networking sites and strategies for determining how, why, and when to use different applications to broadcast your message. In discussing the dos and don’ts of effectively fundraising and promoting your cause, we’ll also look at lessons learned from successful (and not so successful) online campaigns.
Join us Wed. May 14, for a free, one-day online event, in the TechSoup Emerging Technologies Forum as we discuss issues such as:
* How do social networking sites fit in with other outreach efforts?
* Are the benefits worth the time needed to keep up a social networking presence?
* How can you translate online activism into on-the-ground action towards change?
*Is it ever a good idea for organizations to start their own social networking sites?
Take part in the discussion Wed. May 14th in the TechSoup Emerging Technologies Forum:
http://www.techsoup.org/go/socialmedia
This event is asynchronous (not live). No registration is required, just show up and post!
If you have any questions about the event, please email: community@techsoup.org.

Yes, that's all you need to do. If you look at the starred messages that say "Online Event" at the top of the forum, you'll see all the posts related to the event. Feel free to post your questions or chime into one of the conversations.
