Drawing on recent research and work with both journalists and nonprofits, this session looked at how nonprofit communications strategy looks when it is updated for the Web 2.0 world. Not only do the old rules of goal, audience, message work like the did before--they actually work better online than they did back in the good old days (ie a couple years ago).
12. Goals There are no winners or losers to the Social Media Game. This game is intended to help you understand the basic mechanics of the social web as well as strategize online communicating through the Web 2.0.
13. How it’s played Choose from a set of 31 Social Media Cards in 5 categories: Collaboration, Communication Tools, Listening, Media Content/Networking, & Online Broadcast. Each card costs 1 to 11 credits. Choose an Objective card. Discuss, examine, and see how the different tools best achieve your objective for about 10 minutes. You have 12 credits to spend. You will get a Situation Card with an Opportunity (gain credit), Dilemma (lose credit), or a Wild Card (choose another Social Media Card or create your own). You have 10 more minutes to re-strategize. Present to the group your objective, situations and strategy on how to communicate online using social media tools to achieve your goal.

Charity: Water has set the standard in charitable tweetups. On Feb. 12, 2009, there were tweetups in more than 180 cities around the globe. The purpose of these tweetups was to raise money for Charity: Water, an organization that provides clean drinking water for families by drilling water wells in their communities. The event raised over $250,000, which is enough money to provide clean drinking water for more than 15,000 people
