Due to hosting problems I haven’t had the possibility to post in a while. Here’s a short recap on some of the more interesting things that have emerged in the blogosphere during the past two weeks.

How do we benefit the nonprofits? Local media partners have hundreds of thousands to millions of monthly unique visitors and local nonprofits don’t. We’re connecting them and putting nonprofits in the position to leverage that traffic.

Our media partners are embedding our connect2cause widget in their content platforms. As you read the article at SFGate.com (this is after the launch in April) about social issues, hunger, global warming, etc. there’ll be deep links to local nonprofits - events, volunteering, in-kind donation needs, programs - directly alongside the article. This is the ‘boots-on-the-ground, how-things-get-done’ stuff. Research in the newspaper business shows that when people read about ‘problems’ they’d like the ability to do something about them. Now they can.

The nonprofits are benefiting from the enormous traffic and content that local media partners generate by connecting cause - all the ways you can get involved - to content.

I hope companies “try hard” because that’s what will help them stand out and show candidates they care about representing themselves and reaching out effectively. I suppose there’s a chance some companies will go too far, but that might prove entertaining nonetheless.
