And so are the technograpics … This is a chart from Forrester research – where they look at what people do on the social web – across different age categories . As you can see the tools we’re going to look at today appeal to different age categories And, it may surprise you but the demographics of social networking sites or these use profiles is aging – and not all kids are using all tools … What's interesting is why they don't use social networks. The study respondents said their main problems were: privacy, time and just not seeing the point. The Social Media Optimization blog suggests there may be opportunity to appeal to boomers through smaller niche social sites, like for AARP which has added a social networking section to its web site or this network for retirees . Of course, one could also argue that if the bulk of your audience is from the baby boomer and older and you don't plan to reach out to younger people -- perhaps social networking sites are not the best Internet strategy for your organization.
Platform for Self-Organizing: As Tom Subak recalls, in the beginning stages of their social networking strategies, they goal was to get as many people to join their fan page. They realized quickly it was the wrong approach. " We’ve stopped cramming calls to action down people’s throats because we understand that’s not the culture of MySpace or Facebook or the way social media can be successful. We created a platform for folks to have a dialogue in the way they want. We support it, guide it." As Tom Subak adds, "On social networks, we have a very light touch – we give people the opportunity to respond. It often happens through the wall comments – we go through the discussion areas, comments, photos and videos and we take those stories to share with decision-makers." The Power of Sharing Stories: Planned Parenthood has built the infrastructure to be successful. Their online services department is in charge of web site presence, email messaging, and social networking. They work in collaboration with the communications team. As Tom Subak mentions, "But something was missing: The intersection of content that we create with what our supporters create. It doesn’t matter whether it is on our web site or somewhere else. There are millions of stories inside of Planned Parenthood – the stories are incredible. We put a human face on our work and what we’re doing. With our stories, we try to figure out how to get more people engaged and change the public’s view. We now have a department called the New Media Content team. Their job is to create, edit, repurpose, identify content across all our channels. Where does this all come together – part of the organization that is thinking about content – in the way that content exists in now. It doesn’t matter where it is or who created. Another thing to is that it doesn’t matter where the content lives – we’ve been creating widgets that can placed anywhere – not just on our site" http://beth.typepad.com/beths_blog/2009/07/planned-parenthood-movement-building-leadership-engagement-stories-and-platform-for-selforganizing.html
While it’s not a new term, a few months ago, “slacktivism” became the topic of a firestorm debate among nonprofit advocates, online marketing professionals and social change proponents after a series of media stories including an article by Warren Clements of Toronto’s Globe and Mail, “A slacktivist and his crackberry are seldom parted.” The fire doesn’t seem to be going out any time soon. While the definition is its own debate topic, most agree that it is the act of doing something that requires very little effort and has only the perceived effect of impact. Or in the words of Urban Dictionary, “the act of participating in obviously pointless activities as an expedient alternative to actually expending effort to fix a problem.” So do “click actions” like signing a petition and becoming a Facebook fan actually make a difference?

When it comes to tools, it all about making strategic choices And certainly, there are many different tools you can choose This conversation prism was created by Brian Solis, author of PR 2.0 and a great read to show you full spectrum. Earlier this year, Steve Rubel published a fantastic white paper Inside Obama’s Tool Box with some learnings. One that really reasonated was pick where you want to play – out of the 100s of social network sites, they could have been everywhere, but they were on 12 or so sites.

The same sort of engine which powers Wikipedia can be put to work across a number of different “platforms”. The power of sharing allows individuals to come together in great “clouds” of activity, and allows them to focus their activity around a single task. It’s happening all over the social web The cloud results from the "human condition of hyperconnection." Always on Pesce points out that this condition leads to observational learning from watching other people's behaviors online. Behaviors can be replicated quickly and communities of interest can form around particular topics, or "clouds" potential. This is very different from the way most nonprofits work – which more hierarchal - control the message, command and control We’re not making a value judgment about one mode of working or the other. The problem is that the Cloud and the Tower are not compatible. Now, one isn’t going to be replaced by the other. The challenge for organizations that want to be successful in using social media – requires understanding when to work like a Tower and when to work like a cloud But nonprofits need to focus on the interfaces that connect the hierarchy to the cloud In the 21st century we now have two oppositional methods of organization: the hierarchy and the cloud. Each of them carry with them their own costs and their own strengths. Neither has yet proven to be wholly better than the other. One could make an argument that both have their own roles into the future, and that we’ll be spending a lot of time learning which works best in a given situation. What we have already learned is that these organizational types are mostly incompatible: unless very specific steps are taken, the cloud overpowers the hierarchy, or the hierarchy dissipates the cloud. We need to think about the interfaces that can connect one to the other. That’s the area that all organizations – and very specifically, non-profit organizations – will be working through in the coming years. Learning how to harness the power of the cloud will mark the difference between a modest success and overwhelming one. Yet working with the cloud will present organizational challenges of an unprecedented order. There is no way that any hierarchy can work with a cloud without becoming fundamentally changed by the experience.
The remedy – education, discussion, policy Looks at the opportunity costs if they don’t participate Consider the worse case scenarios and have a policy that addresses
