Social Media 201: Blogging and Social Networking for Social Change
Here are the slides from a presentation I gave recently on how activists can use social media tools for organizing and advocacy, including case studies on PowerVote.org and TheUpTake.org. I gave this talk at the Western Organizers Summit in Seattle Nov. 17, 2008, sponsored by Democracy in Action and the New Organizing Institute.
It leaves a little to be desired without any audio. Plus, this is my first time using SlideShare, and the formatting of the bullets on some slides got a little messed up in the translation from PowerPoint to whatever format they use. If anyone has tips on how to fix that, I’m all ears.

of course like your web site however you need to check the spelling
on several of your posts. Many of them are rife with spelling
problems and I to find it very troublesome to tell the reality
then again I will surely come back again.
