Social Media for Nonprofits

For nonprofits interested in guidance on the use of social media, the 17th Social Media Breakfast Minneapolis (SMBMSP #17) event held last Friday (July 31, 2009) was a not to be missed event.  The combined efforts of Rick Mahn, Mykl Roventine, and their many panelists created a great deal of useful, prescriptive content, even for those struggling with Social Media outside of the non-profit sector.  I dare say, too, including those outside of the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. 

I will post more about it in the next week or so, but in the interim I thought some of the material below would be of interest to you right now while it's still relatively new.

Pre Social Media Breakfast Podcast

The folks behind SMBMSP #17 released a podcast about social media use in the non-profit sector, with a particular Minnesota orientation, and commercial sector vs. nonprofit sector vs. government.
