@Carissa – The thing that Feedingamerica.org doesn’t get is the business value of “Thank you!” How motivated will you be to help them again?

K. Am totally bugged I missed the event. We held a ‘virtual food drive’ that was seriously an idea one week and a full fledged fund raiser the next, we used our #GNO group on twitter, paypal back at the home site, and we were floored with the overall success of the campaign! $1400 raised from really only a handful of people and literally no press except what we already had going with our group! We teamed up with feedingamerica.org and they were all, oh? Okay? You want to do what? How? And even after we raised the money they were very underwhelmed, and i get that it’s a drop in the bucket…but we basically did NOTHING and came up with over a $1000 in a week’s time… I can’t get them to ‘GET’ it…but they will!

Man, when you see all the social media outlits pictured in that starfish diagram it is really overwhelming! Thankfully there are sites like yours out there that make them all less intimidating. Those golden nuggets were really interesting – I think one of the most remarkable things about social media is it has bred a new business style: relaxed, cool, approachable, but serious.

I’m downloading your twitter companion today and can’t wait to get my teeth into it – thanks for all your wonderful resources!

@Cheryl – For now you could point your domain to the blogspot DMS server (is this Chinese?). Otherwise call me when want and I’ll walk you through it.

I just noticed that my blog is listed under “Crazy Rhode Islanders I Know”. Very funny!
We’ll have to talk about wordpress vs blogger. I love the look of wordpress. I also bought my own domain name but am not sure how to get that going. Too many other projects. Including sending holiday greetings out to all the followers…why did I think THAT up to add to my to-do list?
